Poke is a dish that is usually built around raw seafood, cut into cubes and dressed with sauces and spices. Hawai‘i’s ambassador of poke, Chef Sam Choy, has collected more than thirty of the Islands’ very best poke recipes for Sam Choy’s Little Hawaiian Poke Cookbook. You’ll find such delicacies as Red Hot and Blackened Poke and ‘Ahi Poke with Lemongrass. There’s Volcano Tofu Poke, featuring sesame oil and brown sugar, and Sam Choy’s Original Fried Marlin Poke, flavored with soy sauce, green onion, ogo seaweed and bean sprouts. You’ll find traditional “pure” poke made with ‘ahi, salt, seaweed and inamona, a kukui nut relish, as well as inventive dishes such as Marinated Steak Poke and Green Onion and Cilantro Pesto Poke. “It just doesn’t get any better than this,” says Sam, “Enjoy!” RECIPES Traditional Poke Straight Hawaiian-Style ‘Inamona Poke Helena Pali Opihi Limu Poke Old-Fashioned Hawaiian Poke Shoyu (Soy Sauce) Poke Poke in Flight Seared ‘Ahi Macadamia Poke Aku Poke with Shoyu Japanese-Style Poke Can’t Get Enough Otaru Poke Spicy Poke Spicy Poke Kim Chee Poke Red Hot and Blackened Poke Shellfish and Octopus Poke “Ogo,” You Go, I Go Oysters Poke Crab Medley Da Kine Poke Supreme Korean-Style Tako Poke Hana Hou Poke Tofu and Vegetable Poke Mauka Poke ‘Ahi Poke Furikake Volcano Tofu Poke Elegant Tofu Poke Seviche Style Hawaiian Ota Hawaiian-Style Crawfish Seviche Poke Fiesta Poke Poke with a Twist Tropical Island Poke Kelly’s Special ‘Ahi Poke with Lemon Grass Wok-Seared Kajiki Poke with Grilled Pineapple Salsa Green Onion and Cilatro Pesto Poke Dad’s Ho Mei Poke Marinated Steak Poke Cooked Poke Poke My Way Cold-Smoked Cured Albacore Poke Sam Choy’s World Famous Fried Marline Poke Poke Sausage Macadamia Nut Encrusted ‘Ahi Poke Author: Chef Sam Choy
