Aku Bone- Tuna Sandwich- Poke Bowls! Aku for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner! Hawaiian Skipjack Tuna!

  • Aku is Hawaiian for skipjack tuna and it’s a favorite for Kimi Werner. This smaller tuna is sometimes snobbed because it has a stronger flavor and softer meat that doesn’t last as long as the larger species of tuna. However, this fish is extremely delicious, versatile and low in mercury. It is treasured in Hawai’i and on this episode, Kimi makes it three ways for breakfast, lunch and dinner! She starts with the Hawaiian classic- aku bone with chili peppah watah! For lunch she makes a gourmet tuna sandwich and she finishes the day at the beach eating shoyu poke bowls with friends!
    Winner has been chosen! Thank you!

    Tita, I have been watching your videos for sometime but hadn’t commented. I also grew up diving living off the ocean, setting the nets at About 4 PM 5 PM in the evening and picking them up at about 5 am in the morning before going to school. I watch your diving segments your cooking segments and it takes me back to my childhood. Most importantly I love who and how you are. Hawaiian is a way of life and you are definitely Hawaiian. I love you so much Tita because I now live in Las Vegas Nevada I watch your videos and I become homesick but also find Joy at the same time. Thank you for your videos I love watching everything you do I wish I knew you when I was younger cause I would’ve went diving with you.
