What is poke?
So poke is a salad. He comes from Hawaii, literally means “cut into cubes”. The main feature of poke is raw fish marinated in soy sauce. If we take poke apart, then this is, in fact, a very simple dish: rice, vegetables, sauce and raw fish.
Poke was invented by the Japanese, who once emigrated to Hawaii: they began to prepare Japanese dishes from local products. So, in fact, the combination of rice and raw tuna appeared: the fish is slightly marinated in soy sauce, spread on warm rice and poured over with sesame oil sauce. Sometimes vegetables or nuts are added.
