Mountain Pepperberry - Australian native flavour
Discover the Power of Mountain Pepperberry.
A First Nations name for Mountain Pepperberry is Mourao, and it's a treasure of Australian native flora with a rich history in traditional Indigenous medicine and modern wellness.
Known for its bold, peppery flavor, it’s a star ingredient in our ‘Duludulu’ Cheese Log Recipe, adding earthy warmth and a touch of spice to this festive centrepiece.
🌿 Traditional Indigenous Uses
For thousands of years, Mourao has been cherished by Australia’s First Peoples as a flavour enhancer and a powerful natural remedy. Crushed berries were used to make a paste for sore gums and toothaches, while its medicinal properties extended to promoting blood circulation and soothing colic, stomach aches, and skin conditions. Mourao's use reflects the deep wisdom of Indigenous culture in harnessing the healing power of nature.
✨ Modern-Day Benefits
Mourao is more than a flavourful addition to recipes—it’s a nutritional powerhouse with remarkable health benefits...
