Poké: Fish Salad Like in Hawaii

Pinterest LinkedIn Tumblr

Get that Hawaiian attitude to life at home! Poké is a spicy marinated fish salad with all sorts of delicacies from land and sea.

The island of Hawaii is known for its relaxed lifestyle, but also for exciting culinary creations. Here “crossover” is cooked in the best sense of the word with European, American, Asian and Maori influences.

One example of the diversity of Hawaiian cuisine is poké: marinated fish filleted into bite-sized chunks. Poké is similar to the South American specialty ceviche, but has a slightly different flavor: the fish, typical tuna, is marinated in soy sauce and served with seaweed and onions. Sounds good? Then you should read on and prepare your own Poké on a hot summer day. We found the recipe on Hawaii Magazine’s website and can’t wait to try this treat!

It goes without saying that the fish used to prepare the poké must be very fresh.
