MAKING HAWAIIAN MALASADA
A light fluffy puff of fried pastry, coated with sugar. It’s an island treat that goes especially well with the morning coffee, or an after dinner treat at a gathering of family and friends. This is one of those Hawaiian food recipes that will delight everyone.
For anyone who lived in the islands, this is definitely a treat that can’t be forgotten. There is nothing like a nice hot Malasada with a hot cup of coco for the kids or a cup of coffee for the adults.
This was the first time that I made my own Malasada. It never even dawned on me to make my own, I was happy to buy it. I guess I just assumed that it was beyond my abilities.
This recipe was given to me by a good friend who teased me about how easy it really is making Malasada. In fact the explanation did sound easy enough so that I decided to give it a try.
Surprise, surprise, surprise, it was easy! Now I can fresh hot Malasada and I can make it any time I want. Freshly made hot Malasadas are the best. Not like those that have been sitting on the shelves for a few hours. Sorry Mr. Bakeryman, but I won’t be buying my Malasada anymore. I’ll be making my own! I found a Hawaiian food recipes that can fill my morning cravings.
