Tasting Kauai

Happy Aloha Friday! We had an exceptional week and hope you did too. Last Sunday, our article “Crunch time with carrots” ran in The Garden Island newspaper.  I hope you get a chance to try the recipe and if you can use Kauai Juice Company’s kiawe-aged balsamic vinegar, all the better.
We didn’t have a story in the Wednesday edition. TGI is going from two food writers to one and there was a miscommunication. Our last story will be in this Wednesday’s edition before our “Tastes of Kauai” column gets moved to Fridays TGIFriday pullout. We’ve cooked up some tasty stories and we appreciate you sticking with us!
Speaking of stories. It’s been eight weeks since Round One: Battle of the Bulge ran in Kauai Midweek. We started working out on Jan. 15 under the guidance of trainer Jane Riley. Despite some backsliding, we have lost a combined 16.1 pounds and 5.25-inches from our waists. Dan lost 11.5 pounds and 2-inches and I lost 4.6 pounds and 3-inches. Tomorrow we go to Colorado for a family reunion and when we get back, well be under a new Kauai Athletic Club trainer Brett Gold. The second article with Brett will run in TGI this May.

Label GMO Foods in Hawaii

Hawaii’s lawmakers recently failed to pass Hawaii’s bill to label GE foods in the state. Sign the petition urging Hawaii lawmakers to pass a state labeling bill in the next legislative session. Sign the petition here.

Kilauea Agricultural Park Complex

The Kilauea Agricultural Park Complex agreement was unanimously approved during Thursday’s County Council meeting. Malama Kauai, the Kilauea Agricultural Committee and the Kilauea community will work together to develop this 75-acre parcel over the coming months and years.
“We commend the county on making good on a 31-year promise,” said Kilauea Agricultural Committee representative Yoshito L’Hote. “It’s a day to celebrate as we can now demonstrate the community and county working together to create opportunities to beautify our island.
The plan is to provide diversified agricultural opportunities to small scale farmers, as well as the creation of community resources, such as a 4-acre renewable energy park, a 3-acre compost and recycling facility, a community garden, and farm incubator program. The park will also be the new home to the Kilauea Sunshine Market.
Malama Kauai Executive Director, Keone Kealoha, will discuss further information with interested parties during the April 9th Kauai Farmers Union meeting in Anahola at the Anahola Clubhouse, 6pm. “This is a project for the community, by the community,” says Kealoha. “We’re encouraging community input and interest, as well as support and engagements in the areas of fundraising and administration.”
Malama Kauai is not new to land stewardship. The group established the Kalihiwai Community Garden, co-founded the Kalihiwai Permaculture Food Forest, created the Kauai School Garden Network, and will be managing the County Office of Economic Development’s EBT/SNAP program for five farmer’s markets this year.
Kealoha continues, “Our organization and projects are growing rapidly. It’s inspiring to see the community become increasingly invested in our local food security while caring for the aina. ”

First Saturday at Old Town Kapaa

The first Saturday of every month is celebrated in the oldest district of Kapaa. It’s a night when galleries reveal new exhibits, bands play on nearly every street corner and restaurants and food trucks offer specials and dancing. Tomorrow, Paco’s Tacos House will crank Latino dance music with D.J. Alben Rivera, and turn the front parking lot into a dance floor while the hungry crowd eats “The Molcajete.”  The blend of beef, chicken and shrimp with nopalitos (cactus), plump Mexican-style scallions and jalapeños, bathed in green chile sauce is served in a molten-hot stone molcajete, with rice, beans and tortillas. Two brothers who workout at our gym, fire up the Santa Maria, a wood-burning grill that produces exceptionally smoky meat. The event has become so popular, that parking became tricky. This month, a designated parking area is located at 4451 Lehua St., on a 3-acre spot next to Restore Kauai and Specialty Lumber. Cost to park in the lot is $3

Farmers Market Tour

Wednesdays, 3 to 4 p.m., $30
Meet local farmers, learn how to select perfect produce as well as when it’s in season and how to cook with it during Tasting Kauai’s one-hour farmers market class. Farmers markets are an affordable way to immerse yourself in local culture and the best place to buy produce that’s so fresh, it was harvested that morning. But buying at the farmers market doesn’t always insure that it was grown on Kauai. It happens all over the world. In Hawaii, customers want mangos year-round. In Colorado, they want tomatoes in May. To make that sale, vendors buy imported mangoes or tomatoes and sell them as their own. Becoming familiar with growing  seasons insures your dollars are spent on local produce.
There’s a whole world of delicious produce that many people never try. Let’s face it, some of it looks like it came from another planet. Once unfamiliar produce is demystified and cooking tips are shared, it may become a regular at dinner table. Many factors can make exotic produce expensive and the last thing you want to do is buy a pineapple that isn’t at peak perfection. This class will also teach you how to tell when produce is ripe as well as how to store it for best results. To make reservations, visit our Farmers Market Tour page.
