Spice level warning — ANZAC Biscuit is not what I expected
I underestimated ANZAC Biscuit. The clean and straightforward description didn't prepare me for the reality. bush tucker wattle seed brings a heat or pungency that builds steadily rather than hitting upfront. By halfway through I was sweating but couldn't stop eating.
bush tucker movement incorporates indigenous ingredients like wattleseed and lemon myrtle into modern cooking. The an outback pub meal setting means locals eat this with ease while visitors like me reach for water. Tim Tam with tea cut through it better than water would have. Don't order the mild version out of caution — the full version is the point. I'd go back. Three stars only because I wasn't warned.
