Celebrity chef Sheldon Simeon’s recipe for Hawaiian-style Mochiko Fried Chicken
Published Mon, 11 Nov 2024 04:34:25 GMT
We first became enamored with Sheldon Simeon on “Top Chef: Seattle” in season 10, when the Hilo-born celebrity chef emerged not only as a finalist but with the coveted “fan favorite” title to boot. Since then, he’s collected accolades — including Food & Wine magazine’s top new chefs for 2014 and a second “Top Chef” finalist/fan favorite nod — as well as restaurant credits.Now Simeon has gathered all his beloved family recipes – including how-tos for such favorites as the Mochiko Fried Chicken he serves at Maui’s casual Tin Roof – into one volume, “Cook Real Hawaii” (Clarkson Potter, $35). The book came out in 2021, offering tropical flavors and a dash of escapism in the form of poke, garlic shrimp and malasadas in the midst of the pandemic.Co-written with Garrett Snyder and photographed by Kevin J. Miyazaki, the book showcases the food he feeds his ‘ohana — his family and friends — which combines Hawaiian, Filipino, Kor...Hawaii’s Pacific pathways and winding trails offer plenty of free adventure

It was a warm, sunny afternoon on Kauai’s Coconut Coast when my daughter and I set out on a leisurely bike ride on the Ke Ala Hele Makalae path from Kapa’a town to secluded Paliku Beach (aka Donkey Beach), eight miles to the north.Our hotel, the splendid, centrally-located Sheraton Kauai Coconut Beach Resort in Kapa’a, provided our bikes free of charge and even packed a backpack — a cooler bag — with a picnic and cold drinks to bring along on our shoreline ride. Mounting our clunky three-speed beach cruisers, we started our ride by winding through the backstreets of Kapa’a, cruising past small shops, pocket parks, food trucks and a kaleidoscope of small town scenery.Soon we were on the outskirts of town, away from the busy main road on a wide ocean side path, enjoying the sheer beauty of the shimmering water, Pacific views and surf crashing against a rugged volcanic shoreline. Here and there, silky smooth patches of sand appeared, and wider beaches, like swimmable Kealia...Man arrested for murder in San Jose shooting

The company behind a pig-to-human heart transplant in 2022 is building a new research and development hub in Southwest Virginia to raise pigs for their hearts and kidneys, for transplantation into people.In March 2022, the first person to receive a heart transplant from a pig died, two months after the groundbreaking surgery at the University of Maryland Medical Center. David Bennett was 57 when he died.In July 2022, researchers transplanted pig hearts into two brain-dead people to learn more before more transplants into living humans.Construction is now underway in the town of Christiansburg, Virginia, to build a facility for Revivicor, the Blacksburg, Virginia, xenotransplantation company behind the 2022 pig-to-human heart transplantation, and United Therapeutics, the Silver Spring, Maryland-based biotechnology company that owns Revivicor.The companies see transplantation as an effective way to deal with a shortage of transplantable human organs.

ROME (AP) — Carlos Alcaraz didn’t see this one coming. How could he have?About to reclaim the No. 1 ranking, Alcaraz was pretty much pushed off the court at the Italian Open by 135th-ranked Hungarian qualifier Fabian Marozsan 6-3, 7-6 (4) in the third round on Monday.Alcaraz suffered his earliest defeat since October.He’d won 30 of 32 matches this year and was on a 12-match winning streak on clay after consecutive titles in Barcelona and Madrid. He secured a return to the top spot next week by winning his opening match in Rome. But he was caught off guard by how Marozsan dictated with spectacular play all over the court, including drop shots that Alcaraz had no answer for.“I just didn’t feel comfortable. He made me feel uncomfortable on court,” Alcaraz said. “He was aggressive all the time. He was playing inside the baseline all the time. It was tough for me to get into the match, into the rally. I made a lot of mistakes that I usually don’t make too much.”The result means Alc...3M fires company executive for inappropriate conduct weeks after promotion

GRAFTON, Wis.

LONDON (AP) — Volodymyr Zelenskyy set off across Europe with a long shopping list. Ukraine’s president will head home with much of what he wanted — though not the Western fighter jets he seeks to defend against Russian air attacks.European leaders promised Zelenskyy an arsenal of missiles, tanks and drones during a whirlwind three-day visit to Italy, the Vatican, Germany, France and the U.K. that sought to replenish Ukraine’s depleted weapons supplies ahead of a long-anticipated spring offensive aimed at turning the tide of the war.The trip was also about shoring up European political and military support for the longer term, to ensure Ukraine can hold any ground it takes back and press for a favorable peace.“They’ve got to show … they’re in this conflict for the long term and that they’re able to keep sustaining this effort,” said Justin Crump, a former British tank commander who heads security consultancy Sibylline. “It’s not going to be one shot and done.”Zelenskyy’s energetic in...Latest news
