Poke is a traditional Hawaiian salad that is made with small pieces of fresh and raw fish or seafood, which are combined with finely chopped vegetables, herbs, condiments, and seasonings.
Although traditional poke uses either ‘ahi tuna’ (yellowfin tuna) or octopus, the variations on this salad are endless these days, including poke salads with salmon, mussels, crabmeat, or oysters, as well as vegetarian versions with diced avocados.
Fun fact – poke (pronounced “poke-ay”, in case you were wondering) gets its name from the food prep. Poke means “to slice or cut” in Hawaiian. The creation of the salad has been attributed to local fishermen who used to combine freshly-caught small reef fish with few seasonings such as sea salt, limu, and seaweed for a filling snack. If you find yourself in Hawaii then the perfect place to sample this dish is none other than Da Poke Shack.
