Directions
Poki, My preschoolers are sushi fiends, and we literally have to save to take them to a sushi bar We use this to tide them over between trips This is an easy and versatile dish that can be used as entree, appetizer, or salad While this is typically a Hawaiian dish that is readily available on the west coast(where I grew up), it hasn’t made it’s way to Washington DC There are probably hundreds of dressing and fish combinations that can be classified as Poki, but this is the one I like , The recipe loiks fabulous!! Thanks for sharing However, I do want to make a clarification for all of you The correct term is poke (pronounced poe-keh ) To call it poki or poe-key is a faux pas — one I’m sure you are not intending Poki is a term for male genitalia *;), Word Poki says nothing to me, but it was well worth finding out this recipe! It is tuna chopped, marinated and eaten uncooked as an appetizer Quite fantastic, really!
