Ahi Poke is an easy-to-prepare Hawaiian seaweed recipe you can try at home. Seriously, I haven't tried this recipe but borrowed it from our Hawaiian guy in the family, Pat Vierra, Pinky's hubby. Since Pat hasn't had the time to put the recipe on video, I've taken the liberty of including the recipe video from Ty Mahler of Roy's Restaurant.
If you love sashimi, you'll surely love the way Hawaiians prepare their fresh tuna! So get that Hawaiian shirt out of the closet, play the theme of Hawaii Five-O and hula your way to the kitchen - Aloha!
