Living Black, Australia’s premier Indigenous current affairs program, turns its attention to culinary heritage this Monday, June 23, at 8:30 PM on NITV. The episode, titled Nornie Bero: Torres Strait On A Plate, spotlights chef Nornie Bero as she joins host Karla Grant in the kitchen to explore cooking methods rooted in her Torres Strait Islander background.
Bero, a vocal champion for her cultural ancestry, brings her passion for indigenous food traditions to the forefront. The episode sets out to examine how traditional techniques and ingredients play out in modern cooking, providing knowledge of Torres Strait Islander culinary customs. Viewers can expect a thorough and insightful look at an often-underrepresented part of Australia’s food landscape.
It’s worth noting that Bero also appears on MasterChef Australia earlier the same evening, making this a double feature for those interested in her work.
