Aboriginal Bush Foods & Indigenous Australian Food Culture | Auntie Dale Chapman

Описание: In this episode of Tasty Trails Travel Pod, we journey to Australia to learn from Auntie Dale Chapman, an Aboriginal chef, educator, and founder of My Dilly Bag, who has spent over 25 years preserving and sharing Native Australian bush food knowledge.

Auntie Dale takes us deep into the world of Aboriginal foodways — where food is medicine, land is sacred, and every ingredient carries cultural meaning. We explore ancient Indigenous knowledge passed down orally for over 65,000 years, from seasonal harvesting and native plants to ceremonial food gatherings and sustainability practices that continue today.

You’ll hear about incredible native ingredients like lemon myrtle, wattleseed, finger limes, bush tomatoes, and bunya nuts, how they’re used in both traditional and modern cooking, and why respecting Country and community is essential when engaging with Aboriginal culture.

This episode is a powerful reminder that food is more than nourishment — it’s identity, history, and connection.
