- Poke bars are a big thing here in the mainland, but they are a bit complicated to make at home. That said, the real stuff that you can get back in Hawaii is a much more simple beast to tackle.
On today's episode we are going to go over some of the history of Poke, do a bit of coastal foraging for fresh seaweed, touch on some onion science, and finally show you how to whip up some ono eats at home.
Ingredients(adapted from foodland's recipe):
1 pound ahi
1 cup sliced sweet onion(soak regular sliced onions in cold water to reduce the pungency)
3 green onions, sliced
1 cup chopped seaweed
1/4 cup chopped nuts (kukui nuts are traditional, but macadamia or cashews work too)
1tbsp ginger
1tsp garlic
1tsp salt
3 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp sesame oil
instructions:
mix everything in a bowl and enjoy! adjust for seasoning as needed.
drink pairings:
although the typical pairing for fish is a white wine, ahi and other red meat fish can actually pair well with a mild red as well.
light bodied red wine: cool climate pinot noir, grenache
Crisp whites: old world Grüner Veltliner, sauvignon blanc, chablis(unoaked)
non alcoholic: hawaiian sun brand lilikoi/guava juice(try it mixed with some seltzer)

They sell dry ogo in a preprepped package here in the mainland.
Awedsome! Definitely use ogo if you can get it! It also grows in southern Californian beaches too!
Looks delicious. Good job!

Nice video. What other fish would you use in Poke?
Traditionally, you would use various reef fish to make poke. But here in the mainland, you can use any fish that you would typically enjoy as sashimi! Salmon, yellowfin, and amberjack are great alternatives, though ahi is the most common!
