Hawaiian Loco Moco

This Covid-19 pandemic has made people better cooks, bakers, and experimenters. I’m finding more people looking for ways to be creative in the kitchen.

Homemade Char Siu

I can’t get enough of char siu. There is something about the stickiness and tenderness of the pork. I thought I would try my hand at making my own char sui. I wouldn’t say this was an easy task. There are a lot of ingredients and time that is needed to make it. My aunt…
