Tuna Poke Bowl

Fino

The origins of the poke bowl , today so well known in many Spanish cities, must be found in the first half of the 20th century, in Hawaii. Before joining the United States of America, this archipelago was a port where Japanese, Chinese, Portuguese, Korean and Filipino flags met, and each of those ships brought with it its culinary culture that was mixed with the local one. The po-kei – which in Hawaiian means “in small pieces” – is the result of this mixture and it is a rice dish with raw fish, vegetables, fruits and sauces that is somewhat reminiscent of Japanese chirashi sushi.
This tuna poke bowl recipe is quite traditional, but it has an addition that makes it stand out…
