Beautiful treasures! I'm always so impressed by the brave people who collect Opihi from the cliffs. Be careful! Those cliffs are FIERCE! Do you know where to find Awapuhi Ginger?
@Hanzo Yes! The shampoo ginger. I'll look around for it. You're probably right. I love ginger. It's so amazing how many different varieties there are.
Try plucking a bud off and tasting it. I don't care for the taste, but since I told wifee they are edible, she grazes on them all the time.

Full disclosure. Edible, but not my favorite. I like costers curse and blue vervain much better. And strawberry guavas, of course.
Happy to get ahi! Sad to find out we were out of wasabi after I sliced my snack and some for the dogs. IMG_4218 by Hanzo posted Apr 27, 2023 at 17:23 IMG_4219 by Hanzo posted Apr 27, 2023 at 17:23 IMG_4220 by Hanzo posted Apr 27, 2023 at 17:23 IMG_4221 by Hanzo posted Apr 27, 2023 at 17:23
Tonight's ahi was seared with a sriracha lime aioli. Had with a papaya, a banana and green tea. IMG_4299 by Hanzo posted Apr 28, 2023 at 18:25 IMG_4300 by Hanzo posted Apr 28, 2023 at 18:25 IMG_4301 by Hanzo posted Apr 28, 2023 at 18:25
Dammit Hanzo ,,, you eat food thats almost to pretty to eat . Are you making all that stuff ? ,,or is it at some of your favorite resturants ?? I just had my yearly VA physical ,,and they said I gained 12 pounds since last year . I'm gonna have to quit hittin these junk fast food sites ,, just always on the run , and to lazy to cook. I guess I need to get me some healthy crock pot recipes or something.
I make much of it, but not all. Made fish and eggs for breakfast along with lychee, rambutan and mangosteen. IMG_4321 by Hanzo posted Apr 30, 2023 at 9:46 IMG_4323 by Hanzo posted Apr 30, 2023 at 9:46 IMG_4324 by Hanzo posted Apr 30, 2023 at 9:46
Went over to visit my mom and help out a bit for a few days. My sister was visiting and has a cold and my mom sounded like she was catching one. And they asked for fish hook (congee). So I made an epic seafood jook for them with lots of ginger to help the colds. Ahi, salmon and scallop with veggies. Also made appetizers of a sashimi plate and seared scallops.
