NATIVE FOODS COOKBOOK

Also available as an e-Book.

NATIF has put together a Hard Cover spiral Book with over 60 recipes that are nutritious, rustic, delicious, authentic and easy.  Plant-based, whole-food recipes and there's something for everyone no matter if your vegan, vegetarian or flexitarian.  It's also a road trip friendly size, cause we love getting into the nature.  

There are enough recipes to choose from if you want dairy-free, gluten-free and nut-free too.  Most of our recipes use minimal or no sugar as we like to use natural sweet fruit or honey to do the job!  

Spiral bound so its easy and friendly to use in your kitchen, caravan, camper-trailer or tent.

This is home-made unpretentious cooking using native ingredients.  It has been photographed at the time of preparation and already eaten and enjoyed with family and friends.

All the native ingredients you need to make these recipes are on the NATIF website and the rest can be found at your local general store.

We encourage replacing any ingredient with what you have at home and need to use up, so you maintain a sustainable, economical kitchen.  

Be creative and adventurous and make up your own versions with what you have. 

NATIVE BEE HONEY

This Australian Native Bee Honey is one of the rarest honeys in the world, unadulterated and with health benefits.

Native Bee Honey is gently cold extracted and has a distinct flavour, texture and is sweet and tangy with eucalyptus and lemon notes.

The native bees that produce this sugar bag honey fly around the World Heritage listed Glass House Mountains on the Sunshine Coast, Queensland, Australia.

A cloudy appearance in the honey is a very good sign, meaning there is a high Propolis content producing high antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties.

Australian native bees have been around since the dinosaurs roamed this vast land.  They were the our first pollinators, but they are also a threatened species.

First People's of Australia used native bee honey as food and medicine for thousands of years.

PRODUCT FEATURES:

• Contains Propolis
• Harvested by First Australians for health properties
• Scientifically proven to have a low Glycemic Index
