Hangi - Underground Food Steaming Site Opens

March 17, 2010 - PRLog -- "Cooking food underground, you CAN'T be serious!" is the usual response Neville Pettersson is used to hearing when he tries to explain the process of cooking a Hangi. Hangi is a traditional Maori cooking technique utilizing hot rocks and water to steam food underground. The methods used to prepare a Hangi are truly unique. The whole process can literally take a whole day to complete. Maori settlers in New Zealand pioneered the technique which is widely known for it's distinct flavor.

"I've created http://www.howtohangi.co.nz/ to make cooking your own Hangi a possibility for everyone" says the site's creator Neville Pettersson. The new site includes absolutely everything you need to know to be able to reproduce a Hangi at home.

If you ever travel to New Zealand, experiencing a Hangi is an absolute MUST try. "You can't truly say that you've been to New Zealand if you haven't tasted a Hangi" says Neville Pettersson the Hangi Guru.
