Or you could contact a specialty produce store near you. Or even ask your market produce dept if they would obtain them for you.<br /><br />Here's a lady's blogpost on the eryngii (alii) and other mushrooms.

Have not been to Mala, have been to Pacific O on Maui - pricey but good. <br /><br />Happy eating!Sooshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00049935433387584192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1001201446838369510.post-24642869854326434202011-10-28T13:46:33.935-10:002011-10-28T13:46:33.935-10:00where can i buy alii's here in california? had...where can i buy alii's here in california? had them for the first time at ma la in lahaina. outrageuosly good<br /><br />phAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
