    Kimi, love how you are explaining not only the process to make traditional food from Hawaii, but also sharing the background on the process and the cultural history. I enjoy learning more about the customs and traditions of Hawaii than just the recipe. Thanks for sharing your culture with the rest of us!

    I miss making lau lau with my mom who has passed since, but we used to make it on the living room floor with lots of newspapers laid out cause our kitchen wasnt big and we'd make dozens, then eat with family and relax after playing the ukulele and singing...thanks for sharing brought back some great memories, since I live stateside now, gonna try with a bunch, and I mean a bunch of spinach leaves haha

    Aloha Kimi...noticed your video. I needed info on Instapot process(gonna make some on Christmas Day with the family.) I remember you’re the awesome diver also! I rather not steam on electric stove. My mom always made laulaus but used gas stove and square Wesson oil cans for steaming. This is so traditional in my memories so mahalo for that. My kids wanted me to teach them and friends for fundraising but I said No. First, you learn from me and than decided to teach all my kids first. It’s a family time tradition and didn’t want to ruin the sacredness of it. I’ve made before but you know these kids don’t hang around. I was the same way but when mommy said “stay home for help”. You best stay home or no eat or get ‘lickens’. So again much mahalo...and God bless!

    We got the same taro in the Caribbean but we call it dasheen. We boil the root part and the leaves are for callaloo . If they are eaten together, its sometimes called "top and bottom"

    Hey Kimi back at home in Tonga we make this too and call it lu puaka which is called taro leaves and pork,lu ika which is called taro leaves and fish,but most people loves the lu sipi which is called taro leaves and lamp flaps, but we make it similar from the way you just made it we do taro leaves then the meat and then onions and coconut cream and then rap it up with foil and put in the oven to cook and we cook the taro on its own

    when I saw this last year , you inspired me. we don't have taro leaves here on the east coast. I used the leaves of horseradish plant and had to improvise the steaming. OMG so ono. actually made it a couple times now with fish ,scallops , and shrimp. SO ONO. mahalos for all your videos

    In Utah it was easy to get Kalo and Kalo leaf because there is a big Pasifika population (mostly Tongan and Samoan), but I’m not sure the other Pasifika culture cook with Ti leaf in the same way and the only place we could even find Ti leaf was at a lei shop who charged a fortune for them. So we always used Banana leaf to cook lau lau. Good, but just not the same. Now in DC I have no idea where to get any of that. I’m going to have to try Collard Greens. Mostly just want to be in Hawai’i, though. This made me hungry!

    Hi Kimi, thanks for the nice video. I've lived in the western Pacific on Pohnpei and on Palau and have come to love all things taro. WHen i moved to Hilo, my neighbor let me grow in a raise bed and my centerpiece is seven taro plants so i have plenty of leaves. I really love the leaves also. I decided to try to make lau lau with just word of mouth recipe style. It came out decen enough except.....i only used one leaf. i didn't know until i opened the package and realized that there was just not enough leaf. Now i know and will use five, too. I've since made 'demok', which is a Palauan taro leaf soup with coconut milk and crab and it was delicious. I had been curious whether another leafy green would work; i was happy to see your experiment worked. Thanks again. First video that i've seen of your's but am a subscriber already. keep up the great work. Sincerely, Paul

    You don't put coconut milk in Hawaiian Lau lau "this is traditional"

      Tradition ties Hawai'i to their neighboring Polynesian islands....it doesn't have a cultural identity other than surfing and hula...and even those aren't derivative. If Hawai'i had a culture imprint it's long lost now thanks to westernization

I figured I might as well make Lau Lau because i have to pull the corms soon before it freezes. It’ll be our yearly Lau Lau. And same i love the taro leaves the best! But you definitely can’t find it up here.

    Mahalo demonstrating the extremely time-consuming process. Like another commenter said it was nearly always a group or family activity for this reason, and how my ohana did it growing up. Yes, Enenue,Kala etc was considered 'rubbish'fish but not today because most of our fish are now imported. My father prepared those fish raw (lomi with kukui nut,limu,chili pepper) or braised in their bone broth for us and how I still like them today - if I can find them😪. Thanks so much sharing your vast and valuable knowledge of our culture!

      We Samoans call it lu'au or palusami....and yep, it's just coconut cream and onion. Fijians also call it palusami. Depending on what meats in it, Tongans call theirs Lu pulu, or Lu Sipi (guess the meat, lol)....I'm guessing they call their plain one just Lu.

    The Kalo leaf is eaten in India ( I can't phonetically spell it in English but sounds similar to alloo). It is regularly available on the mainland US at Indian grocery stores.

    Taro is much a part of the Bikolano cuisine in the philippines, when people make mention of Bikol they almost always make mention of laing ( taro ) too. And we love chili also. I miss home watching your video❤
