Poke is a raw fish salad served as an appetizer or main course in Hawaiian cuisine. Be sure to use fresh, sushi-grade tuna for the very best flavor. The topping options are endless. I made it with avocado and baby cucumbers.

  • Prep: 20 mins
  • Yields: 4 appetizer servings

Ingredients

¼ cup tamari

¼ cup mirin 

2 tablespoons minced scallions, white and green parts

1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil 

2 teaspoons grated ginger 

1 teaspoon honey 

1 Fresno chile, minced 

Kosher salt

1 pound sushi-grade ahi tuna, cut into ¼-inch dice 

Toppings

Sliced Persian cucumbers

Sliced radishes 

Toasted black and white sesame seeds

Diced avocado 

Sliced nori 

Edamame 

Pickled ginger 

Directions

1Combine the tamari, mirin, scallions, sesame oil, ginger, honey, chile and some salt in a bowl, stirring together until the honey dissolves into the mixture. Fold in the tuna and refrigerate for 30 minutes for the flavors to combine.

2Serve with your favorite toppings, including sliced cucumbers and radishes, toasted sesame seeds, diced avocado, sliced nori, edamame and pickled ginger.
