I only know how to make three things.  Here's one

I'd post my habanero/ghost pepper cornbread, but too high octane for most tastes.

Hawaiian salt and fry to crispy.
Eat with poi. Usually they small so the bones are soft enough to crunch.

I saw a news story about locally grown beef served at Kalani HS.
It's very pricey in the market but I bought some to try.
Anybody try the local beef?

was talking to my cousin that is a cafeteria manager
the proposal is "farm-to-school", where all food served at the schools will be local
a great buzzword, but the logistics and costs are going to be outrageous

That's exactly what I thought. The locàl beef rep admitted the infrastructure did not exist.
So basically the locàl beef industry was hoping for a state handout to build processing facilities.

Did it say what days they sell it? I'd be willing to try and let you know my thoughts.

I don't know about Kalani HS.

I bought a small sirloin steak from times this morning.
Sprinkled kosher salt and pepper. Will cook tomorrow.

Had it from both my local Safeway (Paniolo brand) and some expensive filet mignon from a new butcher shop for an occasion.

Wife says she can taste the difference, but not me.  She is more of a red meat connoisseur than I.

It has a lot more to do with regulation and food safety, which has got even more intense thanks to Obama administration allowing the FDA to overstep USDA and tell farmers how to do their job. Farmers and ranchers would love to fill a school contract, but there's so much red tape to wade through that only the big industrial sized companies can afford compliance. Funny how that works.

yeah, that's what I was talking about
sorry i wasn't specific
the logistics and costs to scale up to produce that much food safely in large enough quantities to supply the whole school system reliably throughout the year

so it's a pipe dream, and only big ag can supply the schools

When I lived BI we would get local grown grass fed beef and it definately has a different taste. Much better IMHO. Also, Honolulu Burger Co used to have grass fed beef from BI and you can taste the difference.

Not sure if this is similar to what we used to get on the BI but if it is you will be able to tell.

Locally grown beef is the best.  There is defiantly a different taste.  I prefer it and it's the only kind of beef we eat.

Reminds me of eating at Jackie Rey's in Kona, watching a local fisherman pull up in his pickup with cooler.  Chef comes out, checks the big Mahi-mahi the fisherman pulls out of his cooler.

Deal is struck and the fish goes into the kitchen.  Cannot get more fresh than that, one of my most favorite things about living Hawaii.

A California food inspecktor would have a stroke.  imagine, cutting out all the government control?
