It reads like the mixed plates it teaches you how to make: part history book, part autobiography- all inspiration. To me the difference between good and great in a cookbook is not that is has recipes you can\/want to make, but one that shows you techniques and profiles of flavor to inspire your own dishes and methods. Alana's voice is so needed in the culinary scene. She celebrated the ingredients and foods so many of us were embarrassed to bring to lunch as kids because they were different.... and she breaks it down. Can you feel seen by a cookbook? Yes. This is without question one of my fave cookbooks in my library. \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"text-align: right;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eAloha, \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003eSophie\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFrom a Maui native and food blogger comes a gorgeous cookbook of 85 fresh and sunny recipes reflects the major cultures that have influenced local Hawaiʻi food over time: Native Hawaiian, Chinese, Japanese, Portuguese, Korean, Filipino, and Western.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIACP AWARD FINALIST • NAMED ONE OF THE BEST COOKBOOKS OF THE YEAR BY NPR AND \u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLIBRARY JOURNAL\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIn \u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAloha Kitchen\u003c\/em\u003e, Alana Kysar takes you into the homes, restaurants, and farms of Hawaiʻi, exploring the cultural and agricultural influences that have made dishes like plate lunch and poke crave-worthy culinary sensations with locals and mainlanders alike.
