Thought I'd give you a little peek into New Years Eve, Hawaii style (well, Japanese American style).
We start off with this...kasane mochi (stacked rice cakes) to pray for a good year.
And a homemade kadomatsu.
Some of this.
A little nishime.
Baked ribs.
Kuromame (black beans).
Some tako (octopus) with su-miso (vinegary miso).
Inarizushi (cone sushi).
Soba (buckwheat noodles).
Chinese roast duck.
Some mac-potato salad.
And at midnight, some of this.
Hope your New Years Eve was a safe and happy one.
