Nā Berena Kuʻuna Timorese Hikina: He Makamae Huna o Asia Hikina Hema
ʻO Timor Hikina, i kapa ʻia ʻo Timor-Leste, he lāhui mokupuni liʻiliʻi aia ma ka ʻaoʻao hikina o Asia Hikina Hema. ʻOiai ʻo ia kekahi o nā ʻāina ʻōpio loa o ka honua, ʻo East Timor kahi moʻomeheu meaʻai waiwai a ʻano like ʻole e hōʻike ana i kona mōʻaukala a me ka palapala honua. ʻO kekahi o nā mea hoihoi loa o ka meaʻai ʻo East Timorese ʻo kāna mau berena, i hana ʻia me nā ʻano kīʻaha, aʻa, a me nā ʻuala.
ʻO kekahi o nā berena kaulana loa ma East Timor, ua kapa ʻia ʻo batar daan, i hana ʻia me ka palaoa, ka waiu niu, a me ke kō. Hāʻawi pinepine ʻia kēia berena palupalu a ʻono me ke kī a i ʻole ke kope no ka ʻaina kakahiaka a i ʻole he ʻai ʻai. ʻO kekahi berena kaulana i kapa ʻia ʻo batar krai, i hana ʻia me ka palaoa cassava, waiu niu, a me ke kō. Hāʻawi pinepine ʻia kēia berena paʻa a maʻa me nā stews a i ʻole curries.
ʻOiai ka kaulana o kēia mau berena ma East Timor, ʻaʻole ʻike ʻia lākou ma waho o ka ʻāina. Eia naʻe, me ka ulu nui o ka hoihoi i ka meaʻai ʻAsia Hikina Hema, ʻoi aku ka nui o nā poʻe e ʻike nei i nā ʻono a me nā ʻano like ʻole o nā berena ʻo East Timorese.
Ke ʻimi nei i ka honua o nā mea ʻai meaʻai ʻo East Timorese: He huakaʻi ʻai
Ma waho aʻe o kāna mau berena, loaʻa iā East Timor kahi ʻano pākē like ʻole i ka ʻāina. ʻO kekahi o nā mea kaulana loa i kapa ʻia ʻo pastel, ʻo ia ka mea ʻono ʻono i hoʻopiha ʻia me nā mea kanu, ʻiʻo, a iʻa paha. Kūʻai pinepine ʻia kēia ʻai ʻono e nā mea kūʻai alanui a he meaʻai kaulana i ka wā awakea ma East Timor.
ʻO kekahi pāʻina kaulana ʻē aʻe i kapa ʻia ʻo bolu kukus, ʻo ia ka pōʻai huaʻai mahu i hana ʻia me ka palaoa laiki a me ka waiu niu. Hāʻawi pinepine ʻia kēia keke ʻoluʻolu me ka ti a i ʻole ke kope a he mea ʻai punahele ma East Timor. ʻO nā mea ʻai ʻē aʻe o East Timorese he kue lapis, ʻo ia ka keke i hana ʻia me ka palaoa raiki a me ka waiu niu, a me ka kue mangkok, he dumpling momona i hana ʻia me ka palaoa laiki a me ke kō pāma.
ʻO ka ʻimi ʻana i ka honua o East Timorese pastries he huakaʻi ʻai meaʻai e leʻaleʻa i nā meaʻai. Me ko lākou ʻono ʻokoʻa, ʻano ʻano, a me nā mea hoʻohui, ʻo kēia mau pastries kahi hōʻike i ka waiwai a me nā ʻano meaʻai like ʻole o East Timor.
Ma hea e loaʻa ai nā berena a me nā pastries ʻoiaʻiʻo East Timorese ma kou wahi
Inā makemake ʻoe i ka hoʻāʻo ʻana i nā berena a me nā pastries kahiko o East Timorese, aia kekahi mau wahi e loaʻa ai iā ʻoe ma kou wahi. ʻO kahi koho ʻo ka ʻimi ʻana i nā hale ʻaina ʻo East Timorese a i ʻole nā kalaka meaʻai kūikawā i ka meaʻai o ka ʻāina. Loaʻa paha i kēia mau hale kūʻai kahi koho o nā berena a me nā paina ma kā lākou menus.
ʻO kahi koho ʻē aʻe ʻo ke kipa ʻana i nā hale kūʻai meaʻai ʻĀsia a i ʻole nā mākeke e lawe ana i nā ʻano mea like ʻole o Asia Hema. Ua lawe mai paha kēia mau hale kūʻai i nā berena a me nā pastries o East Timorese, a me nā mea pono e hana ai ma ka home.
ʻO ka mea hope loa, inā makemake ʻoe i ka hoʻokalakupua, hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻāʻo iā ʻoe iho e hana i nā berena a me nā pastries no East Timorese. Nui nā kumuwaiwai pūnaewele e hāʻawi ana i nā ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo a me nā ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo no ka hana ʻana i nā meaʻai kālua o East Timorese. Me ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa liʻiliʻi a me ka hoʻokolohua, hiki iā ʻoe ke hauʻoli i nā mea ʻono a me nā ʻano o ka meaʻai ʻo East Timorese i ka ʻoluʻolu o kou home ponoʻī.
