TRADITIONAL STYLE POKE BOWL

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!

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better your poke bowl will taste. Look for sashimi-grade fish, ripe avocado, and crisp vegetables.
  • Use a variety of textures: Poke bowls should have a mix of soft and crunchy textures. Some common ingredients that add crunch include cucumber, edamame, and crispy wontons.
  • Balance the flavors: Poke bowls should have a balance of sweet, sour, salty, and savory flavors. Use a variety of sauces and seasonings to create a flavorful bowl.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment: There are endless possibilities when it comes to making poke bowls. Feel free to experiment with different ingredients and flavors to create your own unique bowl.

Conclusion:

Poke bowls are a delicious and healthy meal that can be enjoyed for lunch or dinner. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a variety of fresh ingredients and flavorful sauces, poke bowls are a surefire hit.
