LOCATION:Volunteer Park
DESCRIPTION:Saved in Palaner as: saved\n\nPalaner match: 32% · why: lots of
  people going\n\nAloha friends! We're excited to host this summer outdoors
 \, fingers crossed for a good\, not-smokey day. Aaron has a major love aff
 air with Hawaiian food\, but after going vegetarian\, some of the previous
  recipes he loved needed more adaptation and effort. Imagine our delight a
 t seeing a favorite Hawaiian cookbook author write a veggie focused Hawaii
 an cookbook! A dream come true! 🤙\n\nOfficial cookbook blurb:\nExplore Haw
 ai‘i’s diverse culinary heritage through 100+ flavor-packed\, approachable
 \, plant-based recipes for local Hawai‘i favorites from the bestselling au
 thor of Aloha Kitchen.\n\nWhen Hawai‘i-born Alana Kysar returned home as a
 n adult\, Maui’s flourishing farmers’ markets and community crop shares in
 spired her to create veggie-centric spins on beloved local dishes. Hawai‘i
 's most iconic foods came to life with vibrant freshness and satisfying ne
 w textures. Aloha Veggies brings this evolution of local Hawai‘i food to y
 our kitchen\, offering simple\, irresistible\, and nutritious recipes for 
 everyday meals.\n\nAlana’s equation for a balanced veg-forward meal is bas
 ed on the local Hawai‘i plate lunch: Main + Starch + Side = Complete Meal\
 , plus a bonus sweet\, of course. The recipes in Aloha Veggies are organiz
 ed by classic local flavors and dishes—from Mochiko\, Loco Moco\, and Adob
 o to Fried Rice\, Poke\, and Potato Mac Salad—each with four variations to
  try. Classic Mochiko sets you up with the batter typically used for fried
  chicken\, tweaked to accommodate any veggies you please. For a twist\, tr
 y Ginger-y or Sesame-y Mochiko variations. Pair Cabbage Adobo with Buttern
 ut Squash and Black Lentils with some Mushroomy Rice and an Everyday Quick
 le. Next week\, try Braised Miso Eggplant with Pan-Seared Crispy Rice and 
 Namasu Sweet Potato Salad. Since no meal is complete without a treat\, Ala
 na offers a rainbow of variations on favorite local Hawai‘i desserts from 
 Passion Fruit Chiffon Cake to Ube Butter Mochi and more.\n\nAlongside mout
 hwatering recipes\, Alana profiles farms and farmers growing some of her f
 avorite produce\, encouraging a renewed connection to the land and the peo
 ple who grow our food. Aloha Veggies reveals the limitless possibilities t
 hat arise when you center vegetables on your plate\, inspiring a new gener
 ation of home cooks in Hawai‘i and beyond.\n\nRecipe sources (libraries\, 
 blogs\, indie bookshops\, and one more):\nLibraries:\n\nSeattle Public Lib
 raries\nKing County Library System\nSno-Isle Libraries\n\nIndie bookshops:

 will be taken down soon after the event:\n\nCookbook pics\n\nPlease post y
 our contributions to our feast in the comments\, I'll work on compiling a 
 menu closer to the date to help guide the direction and avoid duplicates. 
 Additionally\, Aaron has a tree nut allergy but peanuts are fine and Aisha
  is allergic to black fungus / woodear mushrooms so please avoid these whe
 re possible or note dishes that have them. We will have post-its and pens 
 to write down any allergens and the recipe name!\n\nThis is a unlimited at
 tendee event\, but please still do not RSVP if you are not committed to co
 ming. In order to confirm your RSVP\, pick a dish and list what you'll be 
 bringing in the comments below\, no later than Monday\, August 24th. The r
 ule of thumb is one dish per person scaled to allowing everyone attending 
 to have a small portion. If you have a +1 please bring two dishes or incre
 ase your chosen recipe accordingly. If you're not feeling well\, please st
 ay home.\n\nAdditional reminders:\n\nMake sure your Meetup settings allow

 am\, or social folders (for those on gmail).\nBring serving utensils for y
