The cuisine of Micronesia - Australia

The foods of Micronesia

The Federated States of Micronesia also known simply as Micronesia in the western Pacific Ocean is an independent republic associated with the United States.
Each of its four states is centered on one or more main high islands, and all but Kosrae include numerous outlying atolls. The main staple foods in the Federated States of Micronesia are taro, yam, bread-fruit, banana, and coconuts, of which there are hundreds of varieties. The staple foods from the ocean are the many reef and pelagic fish, crabs, shellfish, pig and chicken.
The islands were originally settled by Austronesian peoples thousands of years ago. Over time, they have been ruled by Spanish, German, Japanese, and the U.S. which have all had influences on Micronesian cuisine.
The local cuisine is centered around ingredients that are readily available on the islands, including seafood, root vegetables, tropical fruits, and coconuts.
