Ahi Poke
Poke ( Hawaiian for "to slice" or "cut crosswise into pieces"; sometimes anglicised as 'poké' to aid pronunciation) is diced raw fish served either as an appetizer or a main course and is one of the popular dishes in Hawaii. Traditional forms are ''aku'' ( skipjack tuna) and ''he'e'' ( octopus). ''Heʻe poke'' is sometimes called ''tako poke'' in places where the Hawaiian language is not spoken. Poke differs from other raw fish dishes in that it does not use citrus fruits as a curing agent. History Poke began with fishermen seasoning the cut-offs from their catch to serve as a snack. According to the food historian Rachel Laudan, the present form of poke became popular around the 1970s. It used skinned, deboned, and filleted raw fish served with Hawaiian salt, seaweed, and roasted, ground candlenut meat. This form of poke is still common in the Hawaiian islands. Beginning around 2012, poke became increasingly popular in North America.Vince DixonData Dive: Tracking the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Purple Sweet Potato Haupia Pie
Purple sweet potato haupia pie is a Cuisine of Hawaii, Hawaiian dish that incorporates purple sweet potatoes and haupia. It is similar to the sweet potato pie that originated in the Southern United States. This dish however, often uses Okinawan sweet potatoes which are purple in color. It has three layers. The bottom layer is a macadamia nut crust. The middle layer is the Okinawan sweet potato portion. The top layer is a haupia topping, which is added when the bottom two layers are cooled to prevent it from being runny. The Okinawan sweet potatoes are distinct in flavor and texture to other types of sweet potatoes, so it cannot be substituted without affecting the final outcome. The sweet potatoes need to be cooked thoroughly in order to become sweet and turn deep purple. The dessert is very rich, and it is made at any time of the year.

Pineapple Upside-down Cake
An upside-down cake is a cake that is baked "upside-down" in a single pan, with its toppings at the bottom of the pan. When removed from the oven, the finished upside-down preparation is flipped over and de-panned onto a serving plate, thus "righting" it, and serving it right-side up. Usually chopped or sliced fruits — such as apples, cherries, peaches, or pineapples — butter, and sugar are placed on the bottom of the pan before the batter is poured in, so that they form a baked-on topping after the cake is inverted. A simple cottage pudding cake batter may be used. The first American recipes for upside-down cake, using prunes, appeared in newspapers in 1923. Traditional upside-down preparations include the American pineapple upside-down cake, the French Tarte Tatin, and the Brazilian or Portuguese ''bolo de ananás'' (also known as '' bolo de abacaxi''). In the United States, pineapple upside down cakes became popular in the mid-1920s after Dole Dole may refer to: ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Mochi
is a Japanese rice cake made of , a short-grain japonica glutinous rice, and sometimes other ingredients such as water, sugar, and cornstarch. The rice is pounded into paste and molded into the desired shape. In Japan, it is traditionally made in a ceremony called . While eaten year-round, mochi is a traditional food for the Japanese New Year, and is commonly sold and eaten during that time. Mochi is a multicomponent food consisting of polysaccharides, lipids, protein, and water. Mochi has a heterogeneous structure of amylopectin gel, starch grains, and air bubbles. The rice used for mochi has a negligible amylose content and a high amylopectin level, producing a gel-like consistency. The protein content of the japonica rice used to make mochi is higher than that of standard short-grain rice. Mochi is similar to , but is made by pounding grains of rice, while dango is made with rice flour. History The process of steaming glutinous rice and making it into a paste is consid ...

Hawaiian Shave Ice
Shave ice or Hawaiian shave ice is an ice-based dessert made by shaving a block of ice and flavoring it with syrup and other sweet ingredients. On the Big Island of Hawai'i, it is also referred to as "ice shave." In contrast, a snow cone, a similar American dessert, is made with crushed ice rather than shaved ice. The thin ice shavings of shave ice allow for the flavored syrups to be absorbed completely instead of sinking to the bottom. Hawaiian shave ice is derived from a similar ice-based dessert from Japan called kakigōri and thus involves similar production methods. Shave ice is characteristically served in a conical paper or plastic cup with flavored syrups poured over the top with additional elements like ice cream, azuki beans, or condensed milk. Shave ice syrups in Hawaii are often flavored with local ingredients such as guava, pineapple, coconut cream, passionfruit, li hing mui (salty dried Chinese plums), lychee, kiwifruit, and mango.

Haupia
Haupia is a Cuisine of Hawaii, traditional coconut milk-based Native Hawaiians, Hawaiian dessert often found at luaus and other local gatherings in Hawaii. Since the 1940s, it has become popular as a topping for white cake, especially at weddings. Although technically considered a pudding, the consistency of haupia closely approximates gelatin dessert, and it is usually served in blocks like gelatin. It is also served in local ice cream parlors as Haupia Ice Cream. History The traditional Hawaiian recipe for haupia calls for heated coconut milk to be mixed with ground ''pia'' (Polynesian arrowroot, ''Tacca leontopetaloides'') until the mixture thickens. Due to the lack of availability of arrowroot starch, some modern recipes for haupia substitute cornstarch. Haupia is very similar to the European dessert Blancmange (food), blancmange. In the typical modern recipe, diluted coconut milk, sugar, and salt are mixed with arrowroot or cornstarch and heated until thickened and smooth, ...

Tasaka Guri-Guri
Tasaka Guri-Guri is a shop located in Kahului, Maui, Hawaii that specializes in a sherbet known as ''guri-guri''. History Jokichi Tasaka first made ''guri-guri'' in the early 1900s while living in Japan. Jokichi called the dessert "goodie-goodie," as in something "good" to eat. His son Gunji Tasaka came to realize that it was difficult for the older Japanese people to pronounce the name, so he began to call it "''guri-guri''". Gunji Tasaka later migrated to the United States and continued to run the family business. Tasaka Guri-Guri has operated for over 100 years. The Tasaka family's business started with a store in Kahului, Maui. It then moved to Wailuku for a year, before returning to Kahului to the former Kahului Shopping Center for a couple of decades. It finally relocated to the Maui Mall in Kahului, where it has been since 1973. Tasaka Guri-Guri was honored in 2009 by the Japanese Cultural Center of Hawaii for being "one of five local businesses that have stood the tes ...

Chiffon Cake
A chiffon cake is a very light cake made with vegetable oil, eggs, sugar, flour, baking powder, and flavorings. Being made with vegetable oil, instead of a traditional solid fat such as butter or shortening, it is easier to beat air into the batter. As a result, chiffon cakes (as well as angel cakes and other foam cakes) achieve a fluffy texture by having egg whites beaten separately until stiff and then folded into the cake batter before baking. Its aeration properties rely on both the quality of the meringue and the chemical leaveners. A chiffon cake combines methods used with sponge cakes and conventional cakes. It includes baking powder and vegetable oil, but the eggs are separated and the whites are beaten before being folded into the batter, creating the rich flavor like an oil cake, but with a lighter texture that is more like a sponge cake. They can be baked in tube pans or layered with fillings and frostings. In the original recipe, the cake tin is not lined or g ...
