Poke bowls are one of those dishes that are commonly thought of as ‘restaurant food.’ It’s time to bring this meal into your kitchen so that you can satisfy your fresh fish craving whenever you want – after all, there’s nothing like fresh raw fish on a hot day to hit the spot!

These bowls come together quick, with the bulk of your time being used for prepping all of the ingredients to go in it. The thing to remember when it comes to eating raw ingredients is that fresh and high quality ingredients cannot be skimped on. Head to a reputable source when purchasing your fish and buy produce that’s in season and fresh.

Raw fish has been eaten in Hawaii since ancient times with simply seaweed and salt. Over time it has evolved into what we know today as poke, with the arrival of different immigrants bringing new flavors and ingredients. The Chinese and Japanese immigrants brought shoyu and sesame oil, which are now both considered staple ingredients in poke.
