Kamaboko Dip by Jennifer Zelko-Schlueter

This Kamaboko Dip by Jennifer Zelko-Schlueter is a classic Hawaiian-style appetizer that’s creamy, savory, and incredibly easy to prepare. Made with finely chopped pink kamaboko (Japanese fish cake), mayonnaise, sour cream, and fresh green onions, this no-cook dip comes together in minutes and is perfect for potlucks, parties, and casual gatherings. Serve it chilled with crackers, chips, or fresh vegetables for a true island-style favorite.

For a complete local-style menu, pair this dish with Warabi Salad by Jennifer Zelko-Schlueter, a refreshing and traditional Hawaiian side that balances the richness of the dip.

Kamaboko Dip by Jennifer Zelko-Schlueter

Hawaiian Electric is a proud sponsor of Cooking Hawaiian Style Season 11 and 12 and this week we are happy to welcome back Jennifer Zelko-Schlueter. I love having Jennifer on the show because she always says she’s nervous but once the bright lights hit her face and the camera is turned on her energy is vibrant.

Not only can she cook but she is also the Director of Government, Community and Media Relations at Hawaiian Electric. In addition, she serves her community on many boards including the Hawaii Health Systems Corporation East Hawaii Region, UH Hilo Alumni and friends, Na Leo Hawaii, and as a member of the Hawaii Island Chamber of Commerce. 

Today she puts on her kitchen hat and shares with us her Kamaboko Dip recipe.
