CelineAndRene Posted July 18, 2008 at 10:35 PM Posted July 18, 2008 at 10:35 PM Hello everybody! I wanted to start a topic about Food. We can share recipies of your favourite dishes, and the best thing of all, it can give us all a chance to maybe try different foods, from other countries/cultures. :clap: Can't wait for replies, so many divine dishes waiting to be discovered!!

amyja89 Posted July 18, 2008 at 10:42 PM Posted July 18, 2008 at 10:42 PM I make a mean omelette, but that's nothing special! Quote
CelineAndRene Posted July 18, 2008 at 10:46 PM Author Posted July 18, 2008 at 10:46 PM For omelette's, I really only prefer cheese.. I'm a picky eater actually... and I ironically start this topic.

amyja89 Posted July 18, 2008 at 10:54 PM Posted July 18, 2008 at 10:54 PM (edited) Lol, my speciality is a bacon, ham and cheese omelette... Can rarely be bothered to make one though! Edited July 18, 2008 at 10:54 PM by amyja89 Quote
stuartguthrie Posted July 19, 2008 at 06:16 PM Posted July 19, 2008 at 06:16 PM I know it probably sounds gross to some but Vegemite and cheese is big over here in Australia - we have Vegemite and cheese flavoured biscuits and Vegemite and cheese cheese-sticks and it in sandwiches. Anyway recently I've been sticking Vegemite and grated feta cheese on a piece of bread in the grill and it is SO yummy!!! The best thing is that it's easy to make (good for me as I'm a hopeless chef - lol). Stu Quote Have a MySpace??? Why not add me as a friend: Click here to visit my MySpace
amyja89 Posted July 19, 2008 at 06:23 PM Posted July 19, 2008 at 06:23 PM What's Vegemite? Is it like Marmite? Quote
stuartguthrie Posted July 19, 2008 at 06:33 PM Posted July 19, 2008 at 06:33 PM What's Vegemite? Is it like Marmite? I don't know what Marmite is, but Vegemite is like a thick paste that goes on sandwiches. It's black and has a savoury taste to it. I hope that helps - I'm not the best at explaining.

amyja89 Posted July 19, 2008 at 07:10 PM Posted July 19, 2008 at 07:10 PM I think it's the same thing as Marmite but with a different name! lol Does it taste quite salty? Quote
CelineRox Posted July 19, 2008 at 07:13 PM Posted July 19, 2008 at 07:13 PM (edited) Yeah Vegemite is like our marmite Edited July 19, 2008 at 07:15 PM by CelineRox Quote http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm31/celinedion82/Emilylove-signature-1.jpg

Jacqui Posted July 20, 2008 at 03:41 AM Posted July 20, 2008 at 03:41 AM I know it makes me un-Australian, but vegemite tastes like poo. Or what I imagine poo would taste like. Quote

KimboCosmo Posted July 20, 2008 at 04:47 AM Posted July 20, 2008 at 04:47 AM Nevermind...thanks to Google It sounds like something very "pooish" What is Vegemite? Vegemite is considered as much a part of Australia's heritage as kangaroos and the Holden cars. It is actually an Australian obsession that has become a unique and loved symbol of the Australian nation. A Vegemite sandwich to an Australian kid is the equivalent of a peanut butter and jelly sandwich to an American kid - but the taste is QUITE different! Vegemite is one of several yeast extract spreads sold in Australia. It is made from leftover brewers' yeast extract (a by-product of beer manufacture) and various vegetable and spice additives. It is very dark reddish-brown, almost black, in color, and one of the richest sources known of Vitamin B. It's thick like peanut butter, it's very salty, and it tastes like - well let's just say that it is an acquired taste! Australian children are brought up on Vegemite from the time they're babies. It is said that Australians are known to travel all over the world with at least one small jar of Vegemite in their luggage, for fear that they will not be able to find it.

That just sounds absolutely disgusting, the description Only used in small amounts it's ok I guess very salty Anyway good thread Aly So some of my favourite recipes I come from an Italian background so cooking is a huge part of our lives. Some classics include Stuffed Artichokes in Roma Tomato Sauce (stuffed with a fresh breadcrumb, parsely, parmesan and egg filling) Stuffed capsicums also done in the same way. Roasted quail wrapped in prociutto with spanish onions and green olives. And a favourite that I love making is Toblerone Swirl Cheesecake, so nice let me know if any of you want the recipe Quote
