Davidson Plum Powder

Botanical name: Davidsonia jerseyana

Refreshing, vibrant and a unique culinary experience, Davidson Plum is a bush tucker that is endemic to the East coast of Australia. It has been used by indigenous Australians for thousands of years for its culinary, preserving and medicinal properties.

Spice Zen’s Davidson Plum powder is from Northern River region of New South Wales, Australia and grows naturally from Tweed to Brunswick River catchment area. Davidson Plum is freeze-dried to maintain its flavour and nutrients. It has an aroma of stewed rhubarb with floral, earthy, musk notes. It is slightly astringent and tart in taste. It gives a beautiful rich red colour to the dishes.

Davidson Plum powder is very versatile. Use it as a flavouring in acai bowls, cocktails, juices, protein shakes, smoothies, sorbets and yoghurts. It is used in baking, chocolates, desserts, ice-creams, jams, sauces and relishes. Great as a meat glaze for duck, kangaroo, pork and for curing fish. Refreshing as a hot or cold tea. Use it to balance flavours in very sweet dishes or desserts.

Davidson Plum is known for its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory properties and is a rich source of vitamins and minerals (calcium, manganese and zinc).
