I just made my first instapot Kulolo and it was way easier than steaming it and having to watch the water level. Came out awesome. Thank you for sharing.
Hi there 👋🙂 Watching you from upstate New York Hawaiian neighbor just treated me to kulolo, amd it was a love from the first bite. Gonna try to make it. I am a Russian woman married to Puerto-Rican, and they eat taro as savory food in stews. I did not know such delicious desert can be made out of it!
@@KeepingItRelle 😋👍 So I got taro. Will be using you instant pot recepy to make kulolo. I have a quick question. Will taro root keep in the crisper of the fridge? For how long? Sorry for such rudimentary ignorance. I come from Central Asia, never even knew taro existed until I came to America and married a man of Puerto-Rican descent (they call it Malanga). Thank you for answering
Thank you for the recipe but also for the lesson on Kalo, I never knew there were so many varieties as well as what recipe would be good with it, lesson well learned! Nice tutorial!
Excellent! I enjoy watching your programs as it reminds me of all of the great foods which we have in our beautiful Hawai’i! I offer prayers for safety and continued good health to you and your families!😎
Thank you for taking the time sharing your Instapot method. This recipe reminds me of home. My father used to make ono kulolo with raw honey and it would get the crisped edge that everyone loved in my 'ohana. I wish I had asked about how he got that finish, I recall him telling me it's very easy. I will figure it out when I try some ideas I have in mind. I live in Texas and we will be moving back to the big island to enjoy our native home by December 2021. My fiance is Philippina and they do something very similar with Cassava. I have recently tried it with Cassava but ground the cassava to a flour consistency. It was good but I want it to be more coarse. I am actually about to do it this time going the grating by hand. I think this will turn out... I do a light modification with your simple recipe and sub sum of the brown sugar with honey. We shall see. ;) Mahalo Nui Loa!
I just made this. Gonna let it sit over night n kill it tomorrow morn for breakfast ☺️🤣. I couldn’t resist so I spooned a lil bit. It’s soo yummy!! I know I’m gonna be in for a sweet treat tomorrow morning!! Can’t wait!! Thanks again for another amazing recipe!!
Pololei keia! Growing up in da' early 60's, my dad used to make imu-kulolo for luau's and I can tell you, "it's hard work" But, watching your video presentation, and since I do have small-kine Lo'i, and one Instant Pot, I'm goin' try it exactly the way you made it in the video. Let you know how it comes out! Mahalo Nui!
Teri that sounds delicious! Love ulu!! Did you grate it first uncooked? Was the ulu firm or soft when yu made it? Did you use the same recipe as the kalo for the kololo? If not, may I please get your recipe ? I would greatly appreciate it! So sorry for all of the questions lol . Mahalo ❤
I made this recipe with homegrown kalo. It was delicious! I still had a little of the scratch in the back of my throat but my wife and in-laws said they didn’t notice. Maybe I’m just sensitive. I’m doing another batch and added an extra 30 minutes to the cooking time to see if that helps. Thank you for the awesome recipe!!!
Thanks for sharing this! My FIL has a taro patch and we get buckets of taro when he goes to harvest them. I always make poi or poi mochi, but never knew how to make kulolo. But now I do thanks to you. Mahalo sis!
That’s so awesome. Do you guys sell the kalo? I totally would love to buy some from you guys if you do. Love supporting local and I get to make yummy goodies. Let me know. Thanks!
Wow i love kulolo, i just came from the big island and was trying to find it everywhere but just one restaurant had it. I need to make this! Im just wondering how to grate it without hurting your fingers
Hi. Many local stores and farmers markets carry this. You can also reach out to the poi factories. If you’re on Maui Aloha Poi sells Lehua variety of kalo which also works.
Aloha Relle so I just got a 8qt instant pot and I can't wait to use it but can I put 2 round cake pan and would it be the same time to cook it or double the time not sure.
been following you on instagram, did not realize you got a youtube channel! subscribed! we live in texas, kinda worried about finding the right kind of taro. i doubt i can ask the employee. lol
Aloha and thank you for sharing your video on Kulolo in the instant pot, was wondering if the Kalo is just grated or is it mixed with something for its consistency, the bowl of Kalo you used looks more like a paste....... ALOHA AND MAHALO
Keeping It Relle shoots! So I made it and it came out kinda goopy haha. Do you happen to know a good place to buy kalo on Oahu? I bought mines from foodland but don’t think it was the right kind. Mahalos!
The variety of kalo matters. How small you can grate the kalo helps decrease cook time. Large chunks will take longer to cook. If not cooked all the way through you can put the kulolo back in and cook for a longer period of time. Hope this helps.
Hi. Sorry I know I should have included that in the video. You will need to peel outer skin off the taro (similar to peeling the skin off a potato). Then you can either grate the taro with a hand held grater like grating cheese or use a food processor with a grater attachment on it or even a stand mixer with the grater attachment. Then it'll be in the form that is shown in the video. Thanks for the question.
Aloha! I was wondering where I can buy this kind of taro to make the Kulolo. I checked out the resource page you listed but I don’t see any information on how to purchase the kalo. Mahalo for your help
Aloha Relle! So I tried the Samoan taro and the taste was good but I thinkI need to grate it with a finer setting and use a chopper as well! The consistency was a little too chunky and some pieces weren’t cooked all the way through so it made my throat a little itchy when I ate it! Not bad for my first time, excited to give it another try! Mahalo again sis🤙🏽
I have not tried it with cooked kalo. Not sure if it will work. It definitely doesn't need the same amount of time if you are going to try it. The length of time with raw kalo is long so you can break down the calcium oxalate that causes the itch.
Hi Angela. The ingredients and recipe description are listed in the description box. 2 cups grated kalo, 3/4 cup raw sugar, and 1/2 cup coconut milk. Thank you.
Aloha! So I made the kulolo using white sugar but the same amount and the same time. It came out a little mushier and not as firm as I would have liked it. Do u think I should keep it in for longer? And does it make a difference using raw or gran sugar? 😬😬
The sugar can make a difference. The type of kalo definitely makes a difference. Did you let it set until cool? If you try to cut it when it’s hot it’ll be too soft.
Hi. You grate the kalo raw. What variety of kalo are you using? It is common for it to be slimy then grating. You can rinse under cold water. You can also use a grater attachment on a stand mixer or food processor if you have one.
@@KeepingItRelle Thank you for the quick response. The kalo im using is above water type not sure what its called, but notice it is white,theres no pink in it like the one you used.
I haven’t done it this way, bud Id assume if the kalo is already cooked before going into the Instant Pot the cook time wouldn’t be nearly as long. And to be quite honest I’m not sure if it will work. If you try it please let me know.
Just curious I got raw sugar does it have to be brown ?? And for the taro I tried hawaii chinese taro cause I could not find anywhere here on Oahu, could I use a electric chopper for the taro or does it have to be graded??
Hi Ross. Doesn’t matter the color of the raw sugar. Chinese taro doesn’t work well to make kūlolo you can give it a shot if you’d like. Best to grate the taro so that it can cook down with the rest of the ingredients. I guess you could also try the chopper and see how it goes. Let me know how it works.
I have a question, when you remove your kulolo from the instant pot & you let it cool. Do you leave it out on your counter top overnight or do you stick it in the icebox? Just wondering mine taste good but it’s still a little runny & it’s sticky. What am I doing wrong.
I leave the foil on and allow to cool on the counter. What variety of kalo did you use? If it’s runny it sounds like there may have been too much liquid added or the water from the Instant Pot got into your kūlolo.
Good morning the store sign said Lehua. I really don’t know. But I did come across you taro chips video and you described the inside of that taro. And I remembered the taro I used had purple dots on the inside. So I’m thinking I used the wrong type of taro. I’m going taro hunting today. We love the taste but it’s just sticky & not firm like yours came out. Thank you for all your video post.
Just bought Fiji taro cuz I have no idea where to get kalo here on Oahu. I guess going straight to the farms would be best but too lazy to drive out and idk which farm would sell right there. None of my 8in pans would fit so I’m going to grab the instant pot pan they have at bed bath and beyond. Will report on how it comes out
Never tried with the Fiji taro. I live in Maui. I get it from farmers markets, nurserys, or the kalo farms. What size IP do you have? Yes please let me know how it goes.
Fiji taro came out bomb!!!! Just like the stores. The only thing is that the color is brown. Doesn’t come out purple. I’m guessing they throw in food coloring. The store kine also puts preservatives in it. Grating it is also a pain in the butt. I used a 6 qt IP I couldn’t fit the 8in round pans so I bought the IP 7in pan and it worked good.
Hi Valerie. So many people have been asking that. I personally have never made it using poi. I would assume the texture and cook time would be different. I would like to try this with poi and see what happens. I'll keep you posted. Have a great day!
As a Caribbean girl this definitely what we call cassava pone in Barbados..or pudding in other parts of the Caribbean...thanks for sharing

Same way you'd grate a potato or any other firm veggie. You can use a guard to protect your fingers if you are worried.

Hi. Many local stores and farmers markets carry this. You can also reach out to the poi factories. If you’re on Maui Aloha Poi sells Lehua variety of kalo which also works.

ill do it. we have gabi tubers in the philippines

Howzit 🤙I love Kulolo! Question? Can you make it with just bag poi? Is it possible?
I've never tried. Might be worth experimenting with. Let me know if you do.
How do you prep the kalo? Is it just raw and then through a grater? Can I use a food processor?
This is raw kalo. Grate with the smallest holes.

Some grocery stores carry it. Farmers market. Or the poi factories.
Nice! Gonna try this out right now! So steam in the instant pot for 2.5 hours?
Yes.
Keeping It Relle shoots! So I made it and it came out kinda goopy haha. Do you happen to know a good place to buy kalo on Oahu? I bought mines from foodland but don’t think it was the right kind. Mahalos!
Here on the mainland the only taro I’ve found are those little tiny ones that are found in Asian markets or supermarkets, can you use this kind?
The Chinese variety? With the specks that they use to make taro chips? Those aren't the best for this.
So the taro sold in stores would work correct? Gonna try this tonight I made your instant pot stew luau and waiting to taste 😋🤙🏾
Depends. The Chinese variety (the one with the purple specks used to make taro chips) are often sold in stores and that one doesn't work so well.
This looks super good! Can I ask, what kind of taro you used?
Mana or lauloa varieties usually. Recently I have been using lehua variety as it is easier for me to find. They all taste great.
Keeping It Relle thanks! Loved this video! If you don’t mind me asking, where do you get your taro from? I’ve been looking all over
🌺🌸🌺🌸🌺
My fav!
Which taro do you use? And thank you for sharing i miss having all of my island food 😢
I like to use mana or lauloa variety.
Followed the recipe to the dot, but the kalo never cook all the way? What should I do for the next batch? Thank you I’m advance for the help🤙🏾🤙🏾
The variety of kalo matters. How small you can grate the kalo helps decrease cook time. Large chunks will take longer to cook. If not cooked all the way through you can put the kulolo back in and cook for a longer period of time. Hope this helps.
This might be a silly question so when you measure the ground up taro is that dry cup or wet cup measurement. :)
Dry cup is fine. I haven't weighed out the ingredients to give an accurate liquid or weight measurement. Thanks for asking.

How small should I grate the taro?
The smallest grater hole size you have. The smaller the easier it will cook down and the less grainy it will be.

The store kine also puts preservatives in it. Grating it is also a pain in the butt. I used a 6 qt IP I couldn’t fit the 8in round pans so I bought the IP 7in pan and it worked good.
StetS O Nice! Thanks for the update!
Saute or pressure cooking mode?

Manual high pressure. 150 minutes. All the recipe ingredients and directions are listed in the description box if you ever need it.

can you use poi
Hi Valerie. So many people have been asking that. I personally have never made it using poi. I would assume the texture and cook time would be different. I would like to try this with poi and see what happens. I'll keep you posted. Have a great day!
