Sashimi lovers unite! It's a holiday tradition in Hawaii to have ahi on New Years Day! Ahi is the Hawaiian name for yellowfin tuna, and it is ono'licious!
Because of the snow blanketing the mainland, shipping routes were clogged, and the best ahi stayed on island. We have an ample supply of delicious ahi for the New Year, and shoppers were flocking to the grocery stores and fish markets.
Many folks planned ahead and had the opportunity to choose from their choice of sashimi grade premium ahi, sold by the pound. Others decided that some spicy ahi poke would be just right.
Of course, it's not New Years unless we have fireworks too, lots...
As for Walt and I, we're all set, and ready for 2011!
Happy New Years everyone!
Your question of the day: Do you have a favorite New Year's day tradition?
