Believe it or not, but cashew (caju feni) is legitimately imported in the U.S. as of a few weeks ago. In fact, the launch party was at a Union Street bar in San Francisco with different cocktail concotions. The importer is Kevin Colaco and the website is www.goafeni.com A few years ago, I had the unfortunate experience of travelling with ten bottles of feni in my overhead luggage. True goan village moonshine feni is sealed in bottles with ,gasp!, candle wax. Well, you can guess the result at high altitude. The wax dislodged and............. Feni and goa sausages, chourice, are the two most treasured smuggled items. The latter used to be sealed in cans. Of course, the dead giveaway was the bad solder job around the can. If not, the Customs dogs usually got it. Thankfully, both items as well as other goan specialties are now available in the States and Canada through www.goacom.com Pardon the plug, but I'm not associated with either site. I'd just like goan food, like vindaloo, get its due respect.
