Hawaiian & Local-Style Recipes from My Ohana to Yours

Whether you’re from Hawaii and craving your favorite foods away from the islands (like my family!) or are curious to taste the island food scene in the convenience of your home, A Taste of Hawai’i At Home is for you!

This digital cookbook contains 35+ tried and true recipes cherished by my Hawaiian family to deliver the best taste of the islands, no matter where you live. Almost all these recipes come from my Hawaiian Grandpa Clarence, Japanese Grandma Marian, Auntie Allyson, and Mom, Lori.

My mom was at the beginning of the trend of kanaka and kama'aina (Hawaiians and born-and-raised locals) moving to the contiguous United States. Far from home, she had to learn how to make the foods she loved in a new place.

This book is filled with the beloved dishes my family makes at home in the Midwest when we miss our loved ones in Hawaii.

From traditional Hawaiian dishes like Lau Lau, Ahi Poke, and the Best-Ever Kālua Pig to local favorites like Loco Moco, Portuguese Bean Soup, and Grandpa’s Easy Pineapple Upside-Down Cake, every bite from this collection delivers the taste of aloha.
