Rezensionen / Stimmen
"I'm not sure how long Ross Dobson spent researching, writing, and collating the recipes for Australia: The Cookbook, but it is a real tour de force ... I've not even skimmed the surface of the ebullient mixture of cuisines and cultures that flavour these pages." - Nigella Lawson
"To me, Oz food is all about multiculturalism. Starting with the indigenous people, their protected ingredients and preserved traditions are bolstered by the influx of diverse people, making Australia a singular place in the world where a range of food and influence intersect. Ross Dobson showcases the Aussie attitude and palate of the place I will always call home." - Curtis Stone, chef/owner of Maude and Gwen Butcher Shop & Restaurant
