Salmon Poké

Salmon Poké (rhymes with “oh-kay”) is a Hawaiian dish consisting of raw sushi-grade Salmon in a soy sauce- sesame oil mix. Traditionally, Ahi Tuna is the star of the dish but since I am a Salmon-lover I substituted and created a unique dish of my own preferred ingredients.

Literally, every food item that is a “favorite” is thrown in here.

This dish is usually eaten at the beach, after a gnarly surf sesh, or while vacationing in Hawaii. I am currently doing none of these things, so I will pretend… and you can too!

This is such a simple recipe, y’all. Literally just chop and mix. Done. Eat. Yum.

Dice salmon, avocado, mango, red onion, green onion and mix with soy sauce, sesame oil and flying fish roe.

Allow this marvelous food mix to sit for about 2 hour without having too many "just tasting it" bites.

After the poke's two hour nap, line a hard shell taco with seaweed salad and stuff with the poké, garnish with flying fish roe & uni.

I went carb-less and just made a foundation of seaweed salad, topped with poké.
