Introduction

Aloha,

The first class visit to the library I browsed the collection looking for ideas on this blog.  The only thing that really caught my interest was food.  Who doesn't love food?  Therefore I've decided to blog about foods of Hawaii and different recipes.  I borrowed a variety of books including books on Kona coffee, flavors of the Big Island, tropical fruits, and pupus.  I couldn't decide what exactly to write about and every recipe book that I borrowed had food that I positively drooled over!  

Includes recipes such as Hilo Pickled Mangoes, Kamuela BBQ Sauce, and Lona Lobster & Shrimp Cake

Some interesting recipes include: Kona Coffee Cheese Stix, Kona Coffee Chicken Tacos, and Hawaiian Kona Coffee Crab and Shrimp Salad

Recipes include: The Honolulu, Mango Daiquiri, Fried Ginger Pork

Recipes include Star Fruit Relish, Papaya Salsa, and Persimmon Mayonnaise

Recipes include: Oxtail Stew, ‘Ahi Katsu Salad with Wasabi-Sesame Dressing, and Shoyu Pork

I plan to investigate the backgrounds about some of these items, places that these ingredients can be found, and actual recipes.  I hope that your stomach is growling as much as mine is from thinking of all these delicious dishes!
