Pretty good. But last time we made it, it was undercooked and super grainy. gonk

It's probably easier to just buy kulolo from the store, imo. xD

I love haupia. c:

What is salt salmon?

What is salt salmon?

salt cured salmon
if you can't find it in the store, just do this with fresh salmon


Put a layer of Hawaiian salt in a large glass baking dish. Note that table salt is not suitable for salting fish. You must use coarse salt.
Rinse salmon fillets, dry them well, and place them on top of the salt in a single layer
Sprinkle more salt on top and make sure all sides of the salmon are covered with salt.
Cover the salmon with plastic wrap, and weight it down using another glass dish or heavy pan.
Refrigerate the salmon for 24 hours to 3 days. A longer salting period will pull more water out of the salmon and will result in a saltier and more heavily cured fish.
Rinse the salmon and dry it well before using to make lomilomi salmon.

So it's the same thing as cured salmon?

but i guess you're supposed to use hawaiian salt when you cure it

Alright. (Clearly, I know nothing about Hawaiian food. I make mean tacos and cakes though.)
