ROYAL HAWAIIAN RIBS

Steps:

• Place the ribs in a large pot, cover with cold water and add the salt, carrot, celery, onion, garlic and ginger. Bring the ribs to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer until the ribs are very tender but not completely falling off the bone, about 45 minutes.
• While ribs are cooking, make the sauce. Combine the pineapple juice, chicken stock, brown sugar, hoisin, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, chile, Worcestershire sauce and 1 of the green onions in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer until thickened.
• Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
• Drain the ribs and discard the vegetables and ginger. Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. Place the ribs on the baking sheet and brush them with oil.
• Brush the sauce on the ribs and grill, brushing on more sauce occasionally, until heated through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer the ribs to a platter, brush once more with the sauce, scatter with the remaining green onion and serve.

• While cakes are baking and cooling, soak the pineapple with the rum for about 30 minutes.
• Mix in pudding and let sit until in a gelled state.
• Whip the two pints of heavy whipping cream (put metal mixing bowl in freezer along with beaters before whipping. For best results-I also put pints into freezer for several minutes before whipping too.)
• Whip cream until firm-watch it so it doesn't become butter-that's going too far!
• Carefully fold the pudding mixture into the whipped cream.
• Toast the coconut in oven til lightly browned.
• Alternate layers of cake with thick layers of whipped cream.
• Garnish with toasted coconut and cover with plastic wrap.
• Refrigerate until the next day. (I have found that if you do not wait and let these flavors meld for at least 8 hours, you end up taking a bite of cake and frosting that has pieces of pineapple loaded with rum, and just doesn't taste good!).
