A Hawaiian delicacy
Yes,
this dish may be an acquired taste for people who’ve never sampled it.
Poke (Poh-kei) translates into “cut meat” or “slice.” Hawaiians
have prepared different fresh fish, such as Ahi or Salmon, in this fashion for
generations. Look for several variations of Poke in supermarkets
throughout Hawaii. Sam Choy – a world renowned chef – is credited with
poke’s resurgence and newfound popularity in Hawaii and areas outside the
islands. He inaugurated the Sam Choy Poke Festival in 1991. Mr.
Choy also opened several Hawaiian/ Pan-Asian themed restaurants that serve his
trademark Ahi Poke in cities nationwide. Poke reminds the Mixed Stew crew
of Japanese Sashimi.
