Editorial Review:

Hawai'i has four types of delicious 'ahi—albacore, yellowfin, bigeye and skipjack—which provide Island chefs with seemingly endless possibilities for preparing this favorite dish. 'Ahi can be prepared raw, blackened, seared, grilled. It is eaten plain, in salads, in sushi, in sandwiches and in pasta. The Little Hawaiian 'Ahi Cookbook introduces more than thirty of the best ways to prepare 'ahi, including Grilled 'Ahi and Pineapple with Coconut Sauce, and Vietnamese Tuna with Dill and Almonds. Raw preparations are well-represented and include Tahitian Seviche, Spicy Poke, and a Japanese 'Ahi Tartare. Tips for shopping for 'ahi are offered, so you can be assured of finding the best fish possible for these delicious Island recipes.

Aloha tastes just fine 4 out of 5 stars.
8 of 8 people found this review helpful.

Like all the Junior League Cookbooks, A Taste of Aloha from the Junior League of Honolulu is chock full of the kinds of recipes that people cook in their own kitchens. So, unlike books written by the celebrity chefs of Hawaii, this one is neither glamorous nor intimidating. Still, it is elegant in its simplicity, and completely authentic in chronicling everything from the pupus (appetizers) that Hawaiians like to serve with drinks before dinner, to the rich desserts made with macadamia nuts, coconut, and chocolate. Anyone who's been to Hawaii and longed to recapture the flavor of the islands in their own home will find straightforward and reliable formulas for the Ahi Poke, Kalua Pig, and Haupia that they enjoyed in paradise.

Great cookbook good recipes 5 out of 5 stars.

The Maui Onion Cookbook 5 out of 5 stars.
7 of 8 people found this review helpful.

I found this cookbook to be one of those perennial books that keep giving year after year. The recipes, though gourmet and exquisitely flavorful, are simple to prepare and the ingredients easy to find. It serves as a reminder of those wonderful days vacationing on Maui. The author has compiled the recipes of many fabulous chefs from Maui as well as some of her own. We brought home lots for friends.

We so enjoyed the food dish poke and its many variations on Kauai that we truly missed it when we came home. With this book, we were able to savory our favorite recipes for poke and also try so many new ones. This is a complete book that will have you turning the page and trying a new style everyday.

Editorial Review:

Poke is a dish that is usually built around raw seafood, cut into cubes and dressed with sauces and spices. Hawai'i's ambassador of poke, Chef Sam Choy, has collected more than thirty of the Islands' very best poke recipes for Sam Choy's Little Hawaiian Poke Cookbook. You'll find such delicacies as Red Hot and Blackened Poke and 'Ahi Poke with Lemongrass. There's Volcano Tofu Poke, featuring sesame oil and brown sugar, and Sam Choy's Original Fried Marlin Poke, flavored with soy sauce, green onion, ogo seaweed and bean sprouts. You'll find traditional "pure" poke made with 'ahi, salt, seaweed and inamona, a kukui nut relish, as well as inventive dishes such as Marinated Steak Poke and Green Onio and Cilantro Pesto Poke. "It just doesn't get any better than this," says Sam, "Enjoy!"
