Vegemite Toast…Australia Day Hangover Cure

Vegemite is a treasure to anyone who grew up on it in Australia.

Marmite and other alternatives just don’t cut it, no matter what any Pom tells you!

Apparently Vegemite is actually a good hangover cure. I wouldn’t know because I’ve never had a hangover, but the Vitamin B and Salt content in it helps you return to normal faster.

So if you’ve had you’re lamb and enjoyed a little too much to drink on Australia day this recipe is for you!

Ingredients:
2 slices of bread
Tub of margarine
Vegemite

Instructions:
1. Put the toast in the toaster
2. When browned remove and butter with margarine while still hot
3. Spread a small amount of Vegemite on the buttered toast
4. Slice however you please and enjoy

Smoked Speck & Eggs Breakfast

Bacon and eggs is a favourite of  mine and somewhat apart of Aussie culture.

This morning I decided to mix it up and replace bacon with smoked speck. Speck is similar to Bacon but differs in taste due to a juniper curing process.

You can cook it the same as you like your bacon, and it tastes great!

It’s also really nice in a meat lasagna, it adds a tasty sweetness to other flavours.
