A non traditional aproach to a Hawaiian poke dish using wild salmon marinated in shoyu, sesame oil and spicy garlic sauce. Tossed with diced persian cucumbers, sweet red onions, scallions, black sesame seeds and topped with fried garlic crumbles. Served with a side of rice.
Poke began with fishermen seasoning the cut-offs from their catch to serve as a snack. Traditional poke seasonings have been heavily influenced by Japanese and other Asian cuisines. Having grown up in Hawaii Chef Jeriel learnt the traditional technique and adopted the ingredients of his current hometown of Seattle!

Fantastic! Loved it - very fresh salmon and a great sauce.
I thought the red things in the picture were tomatoes, so Imagine my surprise (a non-sushi person) when I discovered it was raw salmon. But it smelled SO good I decided to try it. It was SOOO good! I hope this is available again. I can't wait to share it with my sushi loving family. :-)
