16343: O'Brien--question about "pwa" (fwd)

[Bob Corbett <corbetre@webster.edu>]

From: Martha O'Brien <mmcpeob@earthlink.net>

Since I live in an area where there are hardly any Haitians, I don't have
access to the various kinds of "pwa" used in Haitian recipes nor do I have
a good idea of what one might substitute for "pwa kongo" or "pwa pistach,"
for example.  Any suggestions as to where I might order Haitian "pwa" or
what would be a good substitute which might be available in
"Podunk-in-the-middle-of-nowhere?"

Thanks--
Martha O'Brien
