Hawaiian Word of the Week: Nana i ke kumu
Our Hawaiian phrase of the week is nana i ke kumu [nah-nah ee kay koo-moo], meaning “look to the source.” This week, we invite you to revisit your roots. Perhaps there’s a dish your family makes only on special occasions (once a year to ring in the new year, in my case). Ask a relative for the history behind that dish and capture the recipe for posterity. Then, celebrate that piece of you by sharing it with us all.
