Was told the best way to do this was vegemite and butter on toast. I’ll make a quick vegemite compound butter.

I’ll be using the milk bread from the Korean bakery I got this morning

Golden Brown Delicious toast...

>iToddler tries Vegemite for the first time
Yeah, not subbing to this shit, cunt.

Vegemite butter compound is on there. I’ll let it melt for a sec

Verdict: kinda smoky, a little bitter and VERY salty. Not bad but not great. Kinda just okay. Probably won’t make this again. What else can I cook with vegemite? It’s yeast extract so I assume use it for baking?

Then get the fuck out.

i rotated everything so you aussies could read it since you guys are on the bottom of the globe or whatever. :D

Bovril >Marmite > ausshitposting.

>>14599481
I've heard from some people down under that it's good on sandwiches.

>>14599481
Spread it under cheese before making a melted cheese. There's a semi-savoury scroll that has vegemite spread inside the scroll with cheese melted over the top. You can also lob a spoon if it into a stew instead of salt. That's about it for conventional uses.

>>14599481
That's too much. Use it like salt.
>baking
Uh, no. It's for sandwiches.

>>14599535
yeah i did equal parts. i'll take your advice if i end up doing it again

Why the fuck would you mix the vegemite with butter beforehand?
>get warm toast
>spread butter
>spread vegemite sparingly
wala

it's nice on buttered crackers and saltines, on plain bread but if you're a beginner don't use a lot of vegemite and always have it on buttered/margarined bread n crackers never dry.

Little known fact, this stuff is a thing in Switzerland too.

>have you spread shit on your sandwich?
No, I did not.

>>14599607
i was told to mix the mite in the melty butter on toast. and the milk bread toast is so fucking delicate that i knew it'd just get destroyed so i thought compound butter would be the way to go.

what are your (you as in aussies and i guess the swiss guy) favorite sandwiches to put vegemite on?

>>14599633
Vegemite. Cheese and Vegemite. That's all.

>>14599481
Too much tb h. Try it with less as well sometime. Personally I prefer a little bit of neutral tasting margarine with mine, I think the added saltiness of butter is too much. As for other uses, try putting a spoonful in a stew or a soup, it's kind of - not a replacement - but an addition to stock/broth. Adds good u m a m i.

>>14599633
I only really like it by itself honestly, it's kind of overpowering. Not even a big fan of it with cheese like many others are. Fresh white bread I cut into thick slices or white toast remind me of childhood and are my favourite.

>>14599459
Step 1 and you've already fucked it beyond belief. Good job OP, I fucking hate it

>>14599630
it looked good in the end, the compound butter thing is something I've never even heard anyone do here lol but seems to have worked.
>>14599481
>baking yeast
Won't work, it doesn't contain live yeast. It's left over product from breweries that is then heated up for ~24 hours and then packed with salt. That process kills any live yeast left.
It can be somewhat useful in making alcohol but only because the ingredients could feed any added live yeast.
If you know how to make a cinnamon roll, you can make a savory vegemite version by replacing the cinnamon filling with vegemite & cheese.
You can whack in a tablespoon into a stock/stew.
I've heard some people made banana & vegemite sandwiches.
Apart from that it's basically cheese + vegemite on toast (or a toasted sandwich/pannini).

>>14599633
Two pieces of white toast or white bread, a layer of butter on each, followed up by a pretty thin layer of yeasty goodness on each, put them together. Simple as that.

WHO WANTS VEGEMITE?

>>14599667
>>14599636
so when can we expect gordon's vegemite grilled cheese?

>>14599659

>>14599667
>I've heard some people made banana & vegemite sandwiches.
like pizza Hawaii, that sounds like something that might work

>>14599678
meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

bovril > marmite = vegemite

>>14599642
i used unsalted butter i'm picking up what you're putting down. i think this stuff could be good in smol quantities

>>14599694
It's very strong in flavour...and salty too, so yeah, not a lot of it is actually needed.

>>14599457
where do i buy vegemite or an equivalent to it in Germany?

>>14599700
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yeast_extract#Vitam-R seems to be the mildly castrated German equivalent

>>14599700
idfk im just a burger

>>14599692
Equals?

>Equals?

>>14599481
That’s too much but I’m glad you thought it was okay
You can use it as a salt substitute in any sauce/soup

>>14599626
why is it blue

>>14599896
It's called "sky", you might have it in your country too. Except in China or London, I guess.

Kiwifag here. Putting vegemite/marmite on crackers is amazing, that and on toast are the only ways I'll eat it anymore, since I had to endure cold, soggy vegemite sandwiches for school lunch as a kid. And put it on normal toasted white bread, don't brown the toast AT ALL, but make sure the bread is crispy and warm. Vegemite goes a long way, so you only need a little bit. Butter has to be spread on hot toast before you spread the vegemite.

In 1919, following the disruption of British Marmite imports after World War I and prior to the introduction of Vegemite, Callister's employer, the Australian company Fred Walker & Co., gave him the task of developing a spread from the used yeast being dumped by breweries. Callister had been hired by the chairman Fred Walker. Vegemite was registered as a trademark in Australia that same year. Callister used autolysis to break down the yeast cells from waste obtained from the Carlton & United brewery. Concentrating the clear liquid extract and blending with salt, celery and onion extracts formed a sticky black paste.

kiwifag #2 here. it's amazing as an ingredient as well. It's basically dehydrated left over beer foam with spices and salt. you can use it in heavy soups, casseroles, curries, or really anything that benefits from a deeper flavour
10/10 spread onto the meat of a beef wellington

My grandfather dissolves a tablespoon in hot water and drinks it like a broth on a cold day.

>>14599948
can confirm, is good

I've had some nice savoury muffins with vegemite in them. You can also dilute it a bit with hot water so it gets all runny and pour it over cheese scones.

> It's basically dehydrated left over beer foam with spices and salt.
im doing a seafood boil later (which requires a shit ton of spices and beer) i wonder if i put a bit of mite in there it could come out good

Burger here too and I never understood why it gets memed so hard. I tried it for the first time recently just eating it straight out of the jar and loved it, it's similar to cheap caviar in taste. It's not gross at all.

>>14599481
>It’s yeast extract so I assume use it for baking?
Holy shit

>>14601892
Can't talk about the olden days but now you have youtubers with child palates doing it for reaction videos

>>14599481
next time make it properly.

you can also put a tablespoon of it into a beef stew to really bring out the beef flavour.
it's good on crackers with cheese.
also look up how to make vegemite cheese scrolls, they're popular in bakeries here.

>>14599481
when i was going to university, there was a crazy homeless-looking 50yo dude in our dorm that used to make moonshine out of water, vegemite and rotten fruit.
dude used to get fucking sent on it every night but none of us were game to try the shit.

>>14602287
don't act like that's the worst guess you've seen. its an educated guess at worst

>>14599459
That is.... actually a good idea

>>14599481
Ausfag reporting in, you need to make some Vegemite scrolls, simple savoury delight and probably one of the best ways to enjoy it. Also good tip add a tsp too meatballs or a meatloaf, hell even gravy; id use it like Worcester sauce.
