I have eaten raw seafood most of my life. Clams on the half-shell, oysters, sushi, etc. Even the grilled tuna steak I made last year is mostly raw. But I had never heard of Poke before a client asked about it. Poke is a Hawaiian dish with diced raw fish and veggies. A soy sauce based dressing is used to flavor the fish and veggies. But this is one of those dishes that you can make your own by changing out the types of fish and veggies. Even the dressing is adaptable. Have fun with this one. This dish is best made right before you are going to eat it. The fresher the better. It does not last long in the fridge. Any leftovers should be eaten no longer than the next day.
