Mixed Arare (Fried Rice Paste) and Other Local Snacks - Makeup and Beauty Blog
Have y'all e'er had mixed arare? In Hawaii they too call it kakimochi or mochi crunch. It's a really popular local snack. Every grocery store or Long's Drugs on all of the islands has at least one entire aisle dedicated to local snacks, including arare (usually with nori/seaweed flakes, or the pieces are wrapped in nori), and there are dozens of snack-licious varieties — minor bags of dried cuttlefish, cerise coconut assurance (YUM!), shoyu peanuts (roasted peanuts covered with fried rice paste and a soy sauce glaze), crimson ginger (salted, candy-coated ginger that's very hot/spicy), li hing mui (salty dried plums), lemon peel (salted dried lemon peels, which are actually surprisingly delish), shredded ika (dried squid, also known as cuttlefish), and the list goes on and on…
El Hub grew up in Hawaii, so he loves it all. Since the islands are home to so many different people from all over the globe, there are lots of unlike influences in their cuisine. Some of the snacks I mentioned above have Japanese roots, others Chinese, and others…well, I don't even know.
The mixed arare is super crunchy, like crunchier than pure crisis, so they're dangerously addictive, and like popcorn or murphy fries, yous tin can't consume just one. No way. It'south incommunicable. It's easy to go through an entire bag in one sitting.
They're lower in calories than tater chips, simply non by much. One of the 8-ounce bags in the meridian pic has about 900 calories, pure carbs, goose egg fatty (since they're mostly only rice and soy sauce).
If you always visit the islands, make a mental annotation to take hold of a bag, and requite information technology a try. I bet you'll like it.
Ooh! I dearest bringing back a few small-scale jars of guava and other fruit-flavored jellies from Hawaii. It takes peanut butter and jelly sandwiches to the next level.
