Quandong Halves

Quandong halves are the dried segments of the Australian native desert quandong (Santalum acuminatum), often called “wild peach” for their tangy, fruit-forward character. When dried, the flesh develops a bright, tart flavour with notes reminiscent of apricot, peach, and rhubarb, along with a gentle earthy depth.
These vibrant red-orange halves can be enjoyed as a chewy dried fruit or rehydrated and used in both sweet and savoury recipes. They are popular in jams, chutneys, sauces, pies, crumbles, cakes, and biscuits, and also pair beautifully with game, slow-cooked meats, tagines, and grain salads for a distinctly Australian bushfood twist.
Rich in antioxidants and naturally occurring vitamins, quandong halves appeal to cooks and creators interested in native ingredients and modern bush cuisine. For best quality, store them in an airtight container in a cool, dry place; they can also be soaked before use to restore a soft, plump texture and intensify their tangy aroma.
