This ʻAi ʻUlu or Breadfruit Salad was perfected over multiple decades by Aunty Kū Kahakalau in her efforts to prepare affordable, healthy and ʻono food for learners of all ages and backgrounds, who continue to join Aunty Kū and her ʻohana in Waipiʻo Valley to learn hands-on how to mālama and aloha ʻāina.
