I've always wondered what those sausage thingys could be used for and now I know! Me waters boiling and I can't wait to give the vege portions a try!!!
Excellent video reminds me ,when I used to fish in my Asuncion Bay next to Paraguay 🇵🇾 river and once we have caught some fish ,cooked them on the any shore.
I have used the dead stalk and flower on the bullrush to transport embers from one camp to another. They smoulder and burn for a few hours if you light one end and get an ember started, dump a few in bush pot or canteen and carry to your next camp if fire starting is difficult.
G-Day Gordon, I have to let you know you have got me on Yorkshire Tea after watching you enjoy a cuppa on most of your vids. Thanks mate have a good day
Awesome video thanks heaps Gordon. Please make some more on the wild edibles. Also a video of a survival kit would be amazing. Thanks for your videos I really enjoy learning bush skills and practicing them. Keep up the great work! I'll give your channel a share.
Yes we do, in Sydney and the Coffs Coast area. Please see our website for course details, dates and venues. www.bushcraftsurvivalaustralia.com.au Thanks for watching
The best way is to get yourself a good book with a colour photograph of it as well as a good description….there a a few books out there. A good place to start is Tim Lowe's "Wild Food Plants of Australia". Match this with the habitat this plant likes to grow in, in this case…sandy coastal estuarine environment but not always the case". Always make sure you have 100% identification before you cook and consume. "If in doubt…leave out".
Tim Lowe's book "Wild Food Plants of Australia", The Royal Botanical Gardens of Sydney publication of "Bush Foods of NSW" both refer to this plant as Broad leaved Cumbunji. The later makes reference to the name being from the Eora and Baraba people around the Sydney area.
Love it. Thanks again 😀🥰👊🏝🇦🇺

Thanks for sharing this. Excellent. More on wild edibles would be fabulous.
Thank you, will keep them coming as much as time allows for.

Same can be done with dead Banksia flowers.
G'day Gordon, I enjoyed watching that. So much Bulrush round me, I might just have to go try some.
Thanks for watching. Definitely give it a go. There are lots of uses from this plant.
Really informative.
That a nice plate of good looking tucker , mate ! Thanks for sharing !
My pleasure....it was a good feed and very easy to obtain. Thanks for watching.
Great stuff love your channel
G-Day Gordon, I have to let you know you have got me on Yorkshire Tea after watching you enjoy a cuppa on most of your vids. Thanks mate have a good day
It’s a great cuppa is Yorkshire tea 👍
That was one of the best examples of the bullrush and what to do with it. Thanks Gordon.....much appreciated... Cheers Kim.
Once again thanks Kim. You will have to come along and do one of our courses one day.
The Ngarrindjeri people (my people) would steam the roots, then chew on them to make string for nets.
Excellent vid! I love observing nature, discover and decompress...
Thanks, really appreciated.
Good stuff...
👍
Awesome video thanks heaps Gordon. Please make some more on the wild edibles. Also a video of a survival kit would be amazing. Thanks for your videos I really enjoy learning bush skills and practicing them. Keep up the great work! I'll give your channel a share.
Thanks for the positive feedback Todd. There is a video coming soon on some very important items you need to have as part of your out door.
Good job mate , I learned something with this one :) thanks !
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for the feedback.
Awesome video mate, thanks for showing
Thanks for the feedback once again.
Excellent video Gordan! I never knew you could eat bulrush, next time I'm out camping I might cook some up myself. Keep it coming!
Thank you, bulrush really is the supermarket of the bush…all over the world.
Great vids. Thanks.
Thanks for watching and your support, it’s great to know they are appreciated.
if this guy doesn't upload soon. he's a dedman😀
Cam phragmites be used in the same way? I'd be interested in trying it out. Thanks for the great videos.
looked like a good meal.
It certainly was…and easy to prepare.
Your making me hungry.
Gordon, Do run courses in NSW?
Yes we do, in Sydney and the Coffs Coast area. Please see our website for course details, dates and venues.

Thanks for watching
do a video describing the camping laws in australia and if we're allowed to carry camp knives or cut down small tree branches to make fires
That would be an interesting topic. Will have to see what i can do when i have time. Maybe not a video but definitely at least an article.
Needs to be State to State laws.
How do you identify the warrigal green correctly?
The best way is to get yourself a good book with a colour photograph of it as well as a good description….there a a few books out there.

What about plant snap?
more!!!
i thought only certain parts of this plant were edible at certain times of the year
boiling it won't effectively remove oxalic acid or oxalates their melting point well above 100c
Yes but it gets drawn out of the leaf into the water effectively removing “most” of it when you discard the water
Cat tails are good cooked in a pit oven too.
They certainly are! I hope to do a video on cooking in a ground oven one of these days.
Tastes like cucumber..
It does a little…more like potato when its cooked i find.
Yip that is true,cooking changes the flavor as with many foods.So much you can say about this plant you would need a hour long video to cover it all.
It's actually so much better in the coals rather than the fire. Same with almost anything else you'd cook outdoors. Just ask the natives.
Yes, coals are the only way to cook in a fire, except when boiling. Thanks for watching.
Cumbungi, which language?, there are 300+ native Australian languages.

So, about those eels...
I actually caught an eel in there the night before and cooked him up in a slit trench covered in coals…..beautiful!
Sounds delicious. Too bad there are no eels in my area. Have to make do with bream and whiting.
anx mate won't win any wards in the rest ront bloody classic good tucker
