What defines Australian cooking
Australian cooking reflects the country's multicultural heritage and abundant produce, blending British-derived staples with Mediterranean and Asian influences brought by successive waves of immigration. Home cooks lean on the barbecue grill, fresh seafood, and simple baking, with butter and eggs showing up constantly in both savory dishes and classic sweets like lamingtons and pavlova. The result is casual, produce-driven food that favors bold, fresh flavors over elaborate technique.
