Description
Bush tomato (Desert Raisin or Kutjera) is a delight. Both savoury and sweet and packing a punch. We LOVE bush tomato and use it in everything.
These beauties are wild harvested in central Australia by an amazing group of Indigenous women. They have been in short supply in the past years so we are lucky to have them.
Try them ground and rubbed into your BBQ meat, on a cheese board or in stews and casseroles. This comes in a 50g resealable bag as a dried whole fruit.
