“مردم بومی از همان ابتدا به ارزش فلفل آگاه بودند اما این رومیان بودند که آن را به کالایی بین المللی تبدیل کردند. رومی ها عاشق فلفل بودند به طوری که حتی دسرهای خود را هم با فلفل می خوردند و این باعث گرانی همیشگی آن بود. تجار ادویه از شرق دور نمی توانستند بختی را که به آنان رو آورده بود باور کنند به طوری که یک تاجر تامیل با شگفتی می گفت: آنان با طلا می آیند و با فلفل می روند.”

“Saimin was inspired by Japanese ramen, Chinese mein, and Filipino pancit, and developed during Hawaiʻi's plantation era. After a hard day's work, sugarcane and pineapple plantation laborers returned to their homes to prepare dinner. To save money, each family would bring an ingredient they could spare. They would throw all the ingredients into a pot and share the dish. Saimin is composed of ingredients taken from laborers of the early 1900's: Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Filipino, Hawaiian and Portuguese. During these communal meals, families and friends gathered to talk and share. Today, saimin is a local favorite in Hawaiʻi.”
