ʻInamona is a condiment or relish used in traditional Hawaiian cooking made from seed kernels of the kukui nut (candlenuts) and sea salt.
To make traditional ʻinamona, the fruits of the kukui are harvested, dried, and husked. The exposed dried nuts are roasted over hot coals until evenly blackish brown. They are then cooled, sometimes dipped in cold water to crack the secondary husk and expose the kernel. First ground with a stone and mortar, the crushed kernels are then mixed with alaea salt to prevent rancidity.[1]
In modern recipes, macadamia nuts is a substitute if candlenuts are not available.[2][3][4] It is sometimes mixed with seaweeds, often accompanying meals[5] or served with fresh fish.[6]
