  • Description

Hawaii’s local cuisine is a smorgasbord of flavors with influences from Chinese, Japanese, Filipino, Portuguese, Hawaiian, and a multitude of other international styles of cooking. The author of the bestselling cookbooks Hawaii’s Best Mochi Recipes and Hawaii’s Best Local Desserts now brings more than 140 favorite island recipes to the dinner table – from savory Pork Adobo, Oxtail Soup, and Honey-Glazed Walnut Shrimp to Lazy Style Laulau, Portuguese Bean Soup, and the island-style Loco Moco. These are the recipes passed on from friends, coworkers, and relatives; the local favorites that are found at potlucks and beach beach barbecues through the Islands. Many recipes are quick and easy for those who need to whip up a meal in 30 minutes or less after a long day at work.
