Damper

Damper is a thick home-made bread traditionally prepared by early European settlers in Australia.[citation needed] It is a bread made from wheat-based dough.[citation needed] Flour, salt and water, with some butter if available,[citation needed] is kneaded and baked in the coals of a campfire, either directly or within a camp oven.[citation needed] The word "damper" originated as a specific use of the British word "damper", meaning "something that takes the edge off the appetite". There was likely also some influence from the phrase "damp down" as in "to damp down a fire".
