  • 'Anakala Isaiah Kealoha, originally from Kalapana, Puna, Hawai'i Island, shares his love of 'ulu (breadfruit) and demonstrates the traditional method of pounding it into a thick, stretchy paste called pa'i 'ai. With the addition of water, the pa'i 'ai is turned into poi, a traditional food of Hawaiians. 'Anakala shares the traditional techniques of pounding 'ulu with the beauty of his native Hawaiian language. Translation is done by Pa'ani Armstrong.

    We also prepare our food the same way here in micronesia. The pounded breadfruit is called kon, the fermented one is called öpwöt, taro is pounded also called puna. The pounder we call it PO.

    Made 'ulu poi for the first time the other night. Actually, its still in pa'i 'ai stage. I let it and the kalo pa'i 'ai sit out yesterday to sour little bit. Later tonight, going to mix those into poi for dinner. The 'ulu pa'i 'ai is ono as is. I can't wait to eat it as poi and have my family try it as well.

      certain places like pacific markets sell the pounders but the breadfruit pounder is different from the taro pounder

      Makes sense because Samoans don't eat poi. It looks unhygienic during preparation. Like the host said, "it looks messy".

      Luke McCalister Luke McCalister so messy means "unhygienic". So cleaning the guts out of an animal before you eat it is "unhygienic"?I think the word "messy" gets lost in translation. He said so it doesn't "look messy".that just proves how sanitary they were.

      Temau Wolff I learned poi is eaten in micronesia as well, it's called kon. And West African people basically eat pa'i 'ai, they make it out of yams, kalo, plantain, and a few other starches, they call it fufu.
