<p>Poke is a traditional Hawaiian dish 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 dish are endless these days, including poke with salmon, mussels, crabmeat, or oysters, as well as vegetarian versions with diced avocados. Typical ingredients apart from the raw fish or seafood include sweet onions, garlic, shallots, scallions, sesame seeds, seaweeds, candlenuts, <em>limu</em> (brown algae), soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, red pepper flakes, and Hawaiian sea salt. The creation of poke has been attributed to local fishermen who used to combine freshly-caught small reef fish with few seasonings such as sea salt, candlenuts, limu, and seaweed for a filling snack. Poke is typically consumed on its own as an appetizer or with steamed white rice for a full meal. In Hawaii, it is available in most supermarkets and is a common dish prepared for special occasions.</p>

Plat complet, les ingrédients sont frais et la cuisson du poulet est bonne. Sauce soja sur le côté pour ceux qui le souhaitent.
