Glenn’s Favorite Shoyu Mango is a classic Hawaiian local snack with a bold mix of salty, tangy, and spicy flavors. Crisp green mango strips soak in Aloha shoyu and vinegar, while star anise adds a subtle aromatic touch. Hawaiian chili pepper and freshly cracked black pepper bring the heat. This easy recipe requires no cooking and comes together with just 20 minutes of preparation. Let the mango marinate for an hour, then enjoy this refreshing island favorite as a snack or a tasty addition to your local style spread.
