Over 120 recipes showcase family favorites with some surprise dishes drawn from different places and times in our lives. Here are fast and simple recipes for time-constrained weekday meal preparation as well as for times when culinary experimenting is possible. Recipes include favorites such as Chicken Hekka, Vegetable Curry, homemade Mochi (Japanese rice cakes), Chili Pepper Water (the ultimate lū‘au table condiment), and even a Calamansi Cake. Just for fun, there are tips on regrowing green onion and lemongrass leftovers, cultivating your own supply of sweet potato leaves, and concocting homemade vanilla extract.
