Matthew Gray Writes: ☼ Comfort Food & a Malasada recipe ☼

Local-style "Plate Lunch"

☼ Comfort Food & a Malasada recipe ☼

☼ The daymalasada-on-plates and nights are getting colder, rainier, snowier. We all seek the love and warmth and closeness that special people share with us.

Another important factor, of course, is the love that comfort food provides. I’m including my recipe for the famous Portuguese doughnut called the “malasada” famous here in Hawaii. It’s a very special piece of the puzzle on our Hawaii Food Tours each and every day.

It’s a super easy recipe, fun to eat, perfect for the Holidays, and all those days in-between.

The picture of the “Malasada Baby” doll is from the famalasada_babymous bakery Leonard’s based here in Honolulu, but be sure NOT to mistake it for a real malasada. {It’s cute, but definitely NOT edible!} – Ain’t no fun biting into plush, believe me.  {I have been known to take some ill-advised dares in my day, but I digress…}.

Anywho, enjoy this, and share a pic if you do happen to make them in your own kitchen, ok? Or pics of anything you are proud of, that’s luscious, or interesting.

I’ll be standing by here in Honolulu, wishing I could be breaking bread with you…

Until Then…
