SAMOAN DELICACY: PALUSAMI

This acrylic painting shows a pile of palusami just fresh out of the umu, ready to be served. Made simply from taro leaves and coconut milk with some chopped onions and salt. To cook  the palusami, you would place it on hot lava/river rocks which is called a 'umu', it is then covered with banana leaves to keep in the heat. Creamy coconut mixed with taro leaves is one way to keep a Pacific Islander happy.

 

This artwork dedicated to my father, who always made the best Samoan cultural foods throughout my childhood back home in Samoa and Hawai'i.
