The Story of Vegemite: Australia's Favourite Spread
You may have heard of Vegemite a nutritious dark brown paste from Australia with a polarizing flavor and cult following. Aussies love this curious condiment but its highly concentrated flavor isn’t for everyone. With a deft hand and a little understanding of what Vegemite is you’ll be mastering its uses in no time.
Vegemite is a thick salty savoury paste that has a cult following in Australia and overseas where it is used as both a condiment and a seasoning for many savoury dishes. It is made from the by-product of beer brewing as a way to use up something that is mass-produced and usually thrown away.
The yeast is from barley and wheat with some botanicals such as onion carrot and celery and herbs added to the mix. Malt extract and B vitamins are also integral to the recipe and help give Vegemite its unique flavour and health benefits.
