TRADITIONAL STYLE POKE BOWL



Traditional Style Poke Bowl image

Poke, once found only in Hawaii, has grown in popularity throughout the continental U.S. and worldwide in recent years. What is this trending dish, you might ask? Although eaten by ancient Hawaiians using freshly caught fish massaged with sea salt, seaweed and crushed kukui nuts, it didn't receive its official name of poke (pronounced poh-kay, rhymes with okay), which means "to cut into pieces," until around the 1960s. As people flooded to Hawaii from Asia, they added their own cultures' ingredients like soy sauce, green onions, sesame oil and furikake, that have become staples of the dish today. There is a range of variations to the dish that includes ingredients like octopus (he'e in Hawaiian and tako in Japanese), crab, tofu, avocado, jalapenos, chile flakes, garlic, ginger and much, much more. You can serve poke as a bowl, nachos, musubi (another Hawaiian favorite), tacos, tostadas, and the list goes on. Today, we are presenting a traditional style poke bowl, unequivocally the most popular style in Hawaii.

Time 55m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 pounds sushi-grade fish (yellowfin tuna or blue marlin recommended)
3 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons ponzu sauce
2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
1 tablespoon tobiko (or other small fish roe)
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
1 bunch green onions, minced (about 1/3 cup)
1/2 sweet onion, thinly sliced pole to pole
1 cup short-grain sushi rice
Furikake and unagi sauce, for garnish

Steps:

  • Cut the fish into 1/2- to 1-inch cubes. Combine in a bowl with the soy sauce, ponzu, sesame seeds, tobiko, sesame oil, green onions and sweet onion. Refrigerate for at least 20 minutes and up to 2 hours.
  • Meanwhile, prepare rice. Rinse rice in cold water and drain until water runs clear, between 3 to 5 rinses. Add rice to a saucepan or rice cooker with 1 cup cold water. If using a saucepan, bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Once simmering begins, reduce heat to low and let cook, covered, until no water remains, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove rice from heat and leave covered for 10 minutes, then fluff with a fork. (If using a rice cooker, you got this.)
  • To serve, place your desired amount of rice in a bowl. Scoop 6 to 8 ounces poke over rice. Garnish with furikake and unagi sauce to taste. Repeat to make 3 to 5 more bowls. Enjoy!

CHEF JOHN'S HAWAIIAN-STYLE AHI POKE



Chef John's Hawaiian-Style Ahi Poke image

The technique for making poke is so basic that even the most inexperienced cooks can get something close to what they'd get in a restaurant. But the one catch is you have to use only the freshest possible tuna, even if that means frozen.

This is a standard raw tuna (poke) salad served in most Hawaiian homes. Although unconventional, it is sure to please the more adventurous seafood lovers. Be sure to use fresh tuna for the very best flavor, although fresh frozen tuna will produce acceptable results.
