Good to Know STORY
Poke, a dish with deep roots in Hawaiian cuisine, derives its name from the Hawaiian word "poke," which means to slice or cut crosswise into pieces.
At the heart of poke is an emphasis on fresh, raw fish, typically of sushi-grade quality, underscoring the significance of using top-notch, pristine ingredients.
What makes poke truly intriguing is its global adaptability; while it traditionally features ingredients like soy sauce and sesame oil, the dish has evolved to incorporate diverse culinary influences from around the world.
Noteworthy is Poke's flexibility, offering a canvas for personalization where individuals can choose their preferred fish, marinades, toppings, and accompaniments. Beyond its delicious taste, poke stands out as a nutritious option, rich in Omega-3 fatty acids from the fish and an array of nutrients from the accompanying vegetables and seasonings.
As a culinary creation, poke not only pays homage to its Hawaiian origins but also serves as a testament to the dynamic and ever-evolving nature of global gastronomy.
