as a poke bowl joint owner, I recommend you wait for the rice to cool down a bit. Hot rice on bowl will steam the tuna (which we don't want). cheers papa
Dude what are you talking about? You obviously have never been to Hawaii. Every Poke place worth their salt pulls the steamed rice right out of the cooker and makes the bowl. The only time I’ve had a slightly cooked fish is when I get Kalua Pig on Tuesday at Tamura’s. That stuff can be a little hot. That’s why poke needs to be cold so you can safely combine with hot steamed rice without cooking. If you own a mainland Poke place you had better head to Oahu for a couple weeks and go around to all the good places and see for yourself. Tamura’s, Off the Hook, Hibachi, Ahi Assassin’s, Pokeway, even Foodland just to name a few.
As someone from Hawaii, I think the extras in found in mainland poke bowl no longer makes it a poke bowl. It is closer to being a korean bibimbap without the egg and korean chili paste. But I have to commend you on the information. Poke needs to be marinated! I've seen mainland pokebowls just drizzle the sauce on the raw fish right before they give it to you. You are ordering sushi salad and not poke at that point... Also a correction. Poke on its own is just poke. A poke bowl is poke served with rice.
Agreed. This is overtly fancy and is more of a deconstructed makimono. The fish should be 1 inch cubes on rice to call it a poke bowl. That said, still great techniques and ingredients. Sadly, I would still have liked to see some oyster sauce in that Ahi marinade.
ngl this opened my eyes, the "poke bowls" I used to eat in Europe never marinated the fish and I always felt sad about that, thinking my ideas were too fancy, turns out that's how it's supposed to be lol
@@gnawtsatyr8865 he did use oyster sauce? Also he mentions that this version is more similar to makimono and true poke is served alone or maybe with a side of rice
@@kittyallstars you are correct about me, my friend. That short, yet very necessary, mention of oyster sauce was missed in my initial viewing of this "tutorial" for Poke. Personally, I would skip all that fancy side stuff and just mix fresh ahi cubes with some sea salt, kukui nut, sesame oil, onions, and some fresh limu. Good clean fish doesn't really need fancy accoutrements. Just simple things to make your stomach happy. J dubs DOES have a very good pro tip tho, which is to let it all marinate. Even sea salt needs some time to melt. :)
I'm with you. I'm from Hawai'i. I was all ready to shit over Josh based on the thumbnail. He still plated like a mainland chain store but this was closer to legit than I expected.
@@scottfromoahu2896 what was wrong with it in the thumbnail? literally just the way he plated it? It’s not the plating that matters it’s the actual food
@@godisdead6611 probably just means the way he plated it made him expect the poke bowl wouldn’t be authentic. Pretty much every poke restaurant in my area plates like that, but instead of being prepared how josh made, is just colorful garnish and tuna drenched in Mayo.
As someone that is from Hawaii I say the first one is the closest thing to it. The herb mix added in kinda throws me off but the marinating part is spot on. I naturally like my cuts a little bit bigger than half inch. If you come to Oahu and go to tamuras, taniokas, or even foodland you will notice it’s never that small unless they running out of fish. Cheers from Hawaii
Thanks, Josh. Those looked so good to my granddaughter that she’s coming over next week to have some! It was a great bribe (well, I threw a promise of Krispy Kremes in the mix, too, but the poke bowls were really what grabbed her attention).
@@fleuttre4510 I meant I bribed her with a Poké bowl (she loves vegetables and imitation crab, so those will be present, among other things) and some Krispy Kreme doughnuts. I think we’re set for our Poké party tomorrow (Wednesday). 😁
Yea, I was actually sad to hear him promote geico over his own book. They don't need his help, nor do they truly care about his talent. But i can't wait to get this book on amazon!
In glad you pointed out in hawaii the authentic way is more simple with just rice, and your poke sauce looks ONO (delicious). The extras definitely elevate it and makes it look more beautiful, good job making your own poke bowl and respecting the original style
After promoting cheap cooking for so long, it would feel like a betrayal. He could make it relatively expensive but not "the most expensive shit ever" unless he wants to be perceived as an a-hole.
@@BlowUpTheOutsideWorld It would be quite immature for people to perceive it as a betrayal, but ya I agree that a lot of people would see it that way XD he gives people plenty of ideas for cheap meals and cooking advice online and to see that and then get pissed at him for making an expensive restruant doesn’t make sense, giving people ideas for affordable meals doesn’t mean it’s bad to make expensive meals

I can not wait for my cook book to get here. You’ve literally taught me everything I know. Because when I started cooking. I started from your channel. And now I’ll have a digital copy in my phone for wherever I go. and a hard copy to sit right in my kitchen on my book stand.
When I lived in Hawaii I did remodels at a resort that had a poke restaurant in the lobby. I literally ate poke for lunch everyday for two years and I'm still not tired of the stuff. Plus they had about twenty different flavor varieties.
@@abigailandmoongarden The place was called The Poke Shack at the resort Kona Bali Kai. Not sure if it's still there. I moved off island back to the mainland in 2014. I hope it is though. That place was delicious!
@@grammernotzi Wow thank you!😍It's still there - and I'm looking at all the different poke marinades thanks to you and sides too. Thanks for giving me info to feed my love for variety!
@@abigailandmoongarden Awesomeness. Do you live in Hawaii (Big Island) or there for vacation? If so, let me know how it is. They could have changed owners since then. I hope it's still awesome.
I’m from Hawaii and I gotta say man that looks amazing! I’m happy to see Poke is loved by all. I grew up in fishing/ spearfishing family so I’ve eaten tons of poke and sashimi that was only just pulled from the ocean. I can’t wait to try this out!
@@TheApplianceDirect Also, My experience is that most fish taste better if you cure the meat in the fridge for a few days. If I'm fishing/spearfishing all day any fish I eat straight out of the water tastes good to me.
poke/grain bowls are my favourite healthy lazy bulk prep meal! you can make it super easy by using a store bought Japanese dressing (usually sesame), frozen edamame and corn (leave in fridge overnight to defrost, salt lightly + paprika and pepper on the corn). optional add-ins: raw or roasted carrots, chilled. if you can't get ahold of sashimi grade fish or it's not in the budget for that week, chicken roasted till juicy, then chilled makes a great alternative. or tofu! i also like to make a miso paste-soy sauce-sesame oil dressing (no measurements just eyeball it till it tastes good).
Pro tip: if you want raw fish, it does not need to be sushi grade! Just make sure you buy farm raised fish because wild caught needs to be flash frozen to get rid of parasites. (If you have a meat freezer that has a temperature of or below -10 degrees Celsius or 14 degrees Fahrenheit you can freeze your own fish and defrost and enjoy :) Or you could just eat whatever fish you want but just be aware if it’s wild caught it can have parasites.
I actually currently work at a subway style restaurant that servers poké bowls and it’s really cool to see such a different style of poké than what I’m used to. I hope everyone watching this is encouraged to try poké and learn to love it as much as I do 😊
YAY thank you for noting that it's not traditionally made with other ingredients besides the fish and rice in Hawaii!! I appreciate it as a local to Hawaii :)
Yeah I saw the thumbnail and I was ready to fight. Hawaii doesn’t like mainlander’s version of “poke” lol. It looks more like a donburi type dish with poke.
I just made a poke bowl for my wife and now she wants that every day 😊 I love your way of presenting and getting things straight to the point. Next will be Ramen 🍜!
I wish. I haven't had ramen in the US that's even close. At best it tastes like watered down ramen. If we could get the Japanese instant ramen here I'd buy all of it.
Josh out here be saving everyone's money, whether it be cheaper recipes or cheaper car insurance... on cars that aren't being used cause I'm still stuck in a lockdown :( At least I can buy ingredients for some poke!
Haven’t watched this channel in a few months. I used to watch it together with my mom and we loved all the videos 🥰 She passed away in December and it has been hard to watch the channel without her🥺. I’m glad I’m back because it brings me so much joy 😊

@@jvallas yes it was so hard at first to even listen to a song that we loved. I’m slowly getting better at it day by day. I cherish all of the memories that we had together 🥰
I am addicted to this dish, it is so delcious and not to mention incredibly healthy as it pretty much has all your greens, carbs and proteins in one dish. I could eat this everyday till I died
Can we have an episode where you make everyone's favorite dish? I want to see all of you try your favorite foods, and see what the difference in preference is between y'all
Been making self-taught poke bowls at home since, well, since I tried some poke bowls in college a couple years back and wanted to emulate them, and I can say that this is going quite over the top to make something that is rather simple to make. All you do, for tuna or salmon, is some soy sauce, lemon juice, honey, and a bit of sesame oil and the marinade is basically perfect.
If you use it for fish, may I suggest adding a touch of mustard to the mix? The sweet with the snap of mustard is really good (I had a salmon recipe that called for it as a glaze in the air fryer, and it was so good).
Proper Hawaiian poké: my favorite kau-kau (snack) truck served it with Kewpie Mayo, seaweed salad and a sprinkle of sesame seeds. Avo was 50 cents extra. The best ever. They also made it with swordfish, but that was 40 years ago when swordfish wasn’t endangered and almost jumped on the boat. XLNT video. My local grocery used to sell poké ready-made for $8/a pound, but who knows what they put in it? Home made is better, cheaper, and more delish. 1lb of salmon or tuna is around $10/lb, and serves 4-6 as a first course or appetizer. Killer!
I just got a new kitten a couple days ago and she LOVES your videos. She will sit and watch you for hours ❤️😂 she will not sit that contently for anything else
bro I may only be 13 years old but hey, I'm learning how to cook, Im trying to earn my own money and cook my own things and stuff bcs why not, I'm bored, my parents tell me to learn how to be an adult and you have been helping with your videos on cooking, especially the but cheaper ones.
@@Louisiana666 essentially, it’s just rice and poke. I think once it got to the mainland people added more salad things and less fish, due to shipping cost for fresh ahi. Regardless, I’ll always be spoiled getting a poke bowl for 8$ with rice and a layer of just fish.
yaaas!!! although literally you could use 1/4 of oil for those shallots.. 😂❤ im making this for dinner.. im suddenly feeling a mix of reggae music and Japanese soothing sounds..
@@m.s.a.s9194 I've always been afraid to buy fish for home sushi purposes, but a local store has been selling sashimi-grade fish. I figured I'd give it a shot, and if I die, I die.
Go Angelica! You won't regret it. Whenever you like something a little different, or extra, you just tweak it to your liking. I promise, you'll never have to settle for other people's preferences if you make it yourself. Even Josh, whose recipes I love. A little more spice? Done. A little more acidity, or sweetness? Done. You are the queen in your kitchen. Enjoy.
@@Scalooosh1that’s great you’re pretty lucky to have sashimi grade fish near you I wish my grocery store would sell that and don’t worry even if it isn’t high quality it won’t harm you that much
I get the feeling that if he keeps saying words in different ways then eventually he will be unrecognizable to any non fan so much so it becomes a new language.
I love a spicy tuna poke, but I typically chop my cucumber and avocado in the squares also for easier consumption of getting every taste in a bite, also I always top poke with sesame seeds, feel like that and seaweed are a requisite
Josh: "But, you know what else is easy?" Me, who's watched too many of his videos: "it's geico isn't it" Josh: "Combining your home and car insurance." Me: "I KNEW IT"
Almost to a point where you've mentioned enough cooking items that can only be found in Asian markets and a shopping trip is required. Excited to have a food adventure.
Imaging dirtying two large kitchen items just to RINSE rice. this is how you know josh hasnt done his own dishes for a long time. just rinse the rice in the rice cooker insert
Eh, just depends on your preference. I know some people find it easier to wash it in a sieve. I used to do that for years until I finally got to the point where I mastered not losing a quarter cup of my rice in the drain every time I rinsed it while washing it directly in the pan 😂 and then finally got a rice cooker so I wash it in the insert now
As long as I have to do dishes anyway, it never bothers me to wash an extra one if it makes the cooking more efficient. I don’t love washing dishes, but one more doesn’t make much difference.
The rice cooker insert is non-stick; sloshing the rice around could scuff the non-stick coating. That's why you should always rinse your rice in a separate bowl or colander.
@@bsquad12345 I've beendoing it this way weekly for nearly 6 years and my rice cooker insert is in pristine condition still. I promise the rice grains scratching the Teflon coating is not an issue.
@@Silentgrace11 some people use a rice washing bowl. Especially in Hawaii where these small Brown bugs get into the pantry and in every dry item they can find. They even eat cardboard and the inner bag for something like cake mix. So some people want to wash the rice real good and use the rinsing bowl
I've been making these for a few years. I typically use salmon. I use pineapples. And I marinate my salmon in ginger paste, garlic paste, soy sesame seeds and honey. I also top my bowl in spicy siracha mayo
I live in Japan and there was a restaurant that serves Poke Bowls near my office. I ate Poke bowls daily. That's the only thing I miss ever since working from home.
@@atsukorichards1675 first off, donburi usually don't have avocados on them. Or oranges. And they're usually served in a smaller but deeper bowls. Poke Bowl is much more tasty in my opinion.
i never realized how different our poki bowls were in america! I usually prefer mine with salmon and a bunch of toppings so its crazy to see where it originated from :)
Love your channel, have been recommending it to family and friends.👍👍👍This video has reminded me of how much I love poke bowls!!!!! I will now be having a poke bowl for lunch a couple of times this week!!! Have just added the stuff that I need to my Coles order!👌😊 (Coles is a supermarket chain here in Australia)
Hey Josh!~ I know you're in the Austin area, so I'm wondering where you recommend sourcing sashimi-grade salmon? I've been doing poke bowls weekly using that good good frozen ahi tuna from HEB but I'd love to try some salmon to shake it up.
If you have a Costco membership, get their farmed salmon and freeze it for a week in your freezer. You need to get farmed since it won't have the same bacteria as wild salmon and you need to freeze it to remove any parasites.
wait so are you saying if you just eat Costco sushi right away like normal it’ll just have a bunch of parasites because idk much about fish but that seems concerning
@@godisdead6611 if you buy fresh wild salmon and eat it uncooked you might get an infection from parasites that are normally in wild salmon. If you meant that Costco sells prepared sushi (I havent seen it at my local costco), then I am sure they already took all the necessary steps to avoid people getting an parasitic infection
The Central Market on South Lamar has frozen sushi grade tuna and salmon. Asahi Imports on Burnet has frozen sushi grade tuna, salmon, and yellow tail along with some other really great toppings and fillings!
Josh, you just made my day OMG. I love poke and this has to be the best video evarrrrrr, Nice and simple but not tooo simple. Defintely going to try to make the salmon soon
Good stuff. In the Hawaiian language the name for poke came from the style of cutting which was called also called poke which literally just means diced. Keep up the ono recipes.
I make a poke bowl (or something very similar) they tuna and a ponzu sauce that “cooks” the tuna! With rice, lettuce, avocado, carrot, bell pepper, edamame beans and radish! It’s super good, topped with nori pieces and toasted sesame seeds!
@@wanderlustandsparkle4395 this is true because people tastes change but I would never see my grandmother eat poke like that just like seeing people mixing poi with lomi lomi salmon, which to me is rather disgusting.
as a poke bowl joint owner, I recommend you wait for the rice to cool down a bit. Hot rice on bowl will steam the tuna (which we don't want). cheers papa
Im sure he did, but its a really good point to make to a cooking illiterate like me 👍
Dude what are you talking about? You obviously have never been to Hawaii. Every Poke place worth their salt pulls the steamed rice right out of the cooker and makes the bowl.

Home made is better, cheaper, and more delish. 1lb of salmon or tuna is around $10/lb, and serves 4-6 as a first course or appetizer. Killer!
FYI....Kau-kau=eat, pupu=snack
This guy knows how to do this job. Congrats Joshua keep the good work bro
Papa knows how to pokes us the right way!!!
that sounds wrong.
@@BeardGainz sounds good to me 😩
@@semosayba sounds good to me too!
I love anything in a bowl and poke just has everything I love so much ❤
I still can't believe that he hasn't made Biryani yet
I just got a new kitten a couple days ago and she LOVES your videos. She will sit and watch you for hours ❤️😂 she will not sit that contently for anything else
Why do I love everything Josh makes? This dish is a must!!😍
As a fish, I wouldn’t mind sacrificing for someone to eat that delectable delicious meal
The orange peeling and slicing part was so beautiful ❤️ i felt the tang on my fingers as if I am peeling it and also in my mouth!
bro I may only be 13 years old but hey, I'm learning how to cook, Im trying to earn my own money and cook my own things and stuff bcs why not, I'm bored, my parents tell me to learn how to be an adult and you have been helping with your videos on cooking, especially the but cheaper ones.
You talk to much + your advertisements
I've been waiting for this forever!!! Poke Bowls are soooo expensive this side. Thanks so much Joshua!!! LOVE from South Africa ^_^ !
Yo Josh simultaneously showing me how to cook dinner and reminding me to pay my car insurance is such a dub for the importance of chefs
Those Homemade Poke Bowls are absolutely perfect, yay!
As a native Hawaiian, this is probably the best spin off of what our poke bowls are like! You actually have FISH in it! Super stoked for you, man! 🤙🏽
Chee! Right on braddah!🤙🏽
I would love watching Josh tackle "snert" a dutch pea soup this winter
Maybe with some boerenkool stamppot as a side.. 🧐
That would be frickin' amazing, would love for him to botch our precious dutch culture 😂😂
I'm still in love with your energy! You're the best! 💜🥣🍽🧉
Half the stuff he makes I’m too picky to eat, but damn, I love watching him cook things lmaooo
finally something healthy! i made it ( not followed exactly, took some tips/techniques) and LOVED it! Thanks Josh & Team
!!!!
😜😜
As a local Hawaiian from the island of Kauai I honestly hate the way the bowl is presented but I love the way you did it. Props to you my man.
Yeah, it's a mainland poke bowl, not a HI poke bowl
the first one was closer than the second but the whole time i was thinking “ADD MORE FISH”
Can you fill me in on the Hawaiian presentation?
@@Louisiana666 essentially, it’s just rice and poke. I think once it got to the mainland people added more salad things and less fish, due to shipping cost for fresh ahi. Regardless, I’ll always be spoiled getting a poke bowl for 8$ with rice and a layer of just fish.
Ishihara make um best lol
it's 1:50am MY TIME and I was about to go to bed but saw this now I have a new recipe to try... LMBO!!!
I WAS JUST ABOUT TO DO MY FIRST POKEBOWL TODAY ❤️ thank you!!
👍👍
yaaas!!! although literally you could use 1/4 of oil for those shallots.. 😂❤ im making this for dinner.. im suddenly feeling a mix of reggae music and Japanese soothing sounds..
Today's the day. The day I finally make a recipe. I thought it'd be when I got the cookbook, but I. Love. Poke.
Make sure u get some good fish
@@m.s.a.s9194 I've always been afraid to buy fish for home sushi purposes, but a local store has been selling sashimi-grade fish. I figured I'd give it a shot, and if I die, I die.
Go Angelica! You won't regret it. Whenever you like something a little different, or extra, you just tweak it to your liking. I promise, you'll never have to settle for other people's preferences if you make it yourself. Even Josh, whose recipes I love. A little more spice? Done. A little more acidity, or sweetness? Done. You are the queen in your kitchen. Enjoy.
@@Scalooosh1that’s great you’re pretty lucky to have sashimi grade fish near you I wish my grocery store would sell that and don’t worry even if it isn’t high quality it won’t harm you that much
@@m.s.a.s9194 It's mainly just salmon, but 🤷♀️ good enough, right? I like all fish.
One of my faves. Thank you for this, Joshua.
I get the feeling that if he keeps saying words in different ways then eventually he will be unrecognizable to any non fan so much so it becomes a new language.
josh: the only cook time is the rice
josh: *fries shallots*
so what is the truth? what is the truth joshua
I wonder if you can catch any POKEMON with this Poke Bowls?!
i wanna be the very best
The Slav Chef used Not So Clever Comment
Its not very effective
Ikr
@@victore8342 he got you with it, soooo this is debatable.
@@johnmorrison3066 well i didnt say it did absolutely 0 damage either 🤣
I love a spicy tuna poke, but I typically chop my cucumber and avocado in the squares also for easier consumption of getting every taste in a bite, also I always top poke with sesame seeds, feel like that and seaweed are a requisite
Josh: "But, you know what else is easy?"
Me, who's watched too many of his videos: "it's geico isn't it"
Josh: "Combining your home and car insurance."
Me: "I KNEW IT"
true.
White rice, salmon (sauces already on it) add cilantro and masago to salmon, mix well. Edemame, Mango, pineapple, cucumber, crab salad (or shredded crab) and sesame seeds 🤤😛😛😛😛
Josh: *Yelling at Vikram*
*Camera slowly pans to one of Josh's Friends behind the camera*
Josh: "Thats not Vikram"
Fucking amazing
the possibilities are endless with poke bowls :D
RIP the cucumber slice at 4:00
AMAZING! You make it look so easy. Can't wait to try.
The melody for “ whisky business” keeps evolving every episode and I’m here for it 🔥💀
I love the way you talk- your clip is awesome 👏 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Haiyah…
When you make poke, you need inamona, roasted kukui(candle nut)! It makes a world of difference! Everyone in Hawaii knows.
Hiiyyaahh.. Garanz cuz haahah
And limu
Bro YOU VIDEOS ARE AMAZING. Amazing dude, just amazing.
JW: "Uncle Roger and I have told you enough. Wash your godamn rice!"
Also JW: Uses colander with rice and measures water with cups instead of fingers
Almost make Uncle Roger put leg down from chair
Watchin this while on my break at the poke shop i work. Also its lowkey the best ppoke place in la, lowkey
Almost to a point where you've mentioned enough cooking items that can only be found in Asian markets and a shopping trip is required. Excited to have a food adventure.
I respect this man's way of doing sponsors😂😂 he does it in like 2 seconds so that we dont have to wait👍
Imaging dirtying two large kitchen items just to RINSE rice. this is how you know josh hasnt done his own dishes for a long time. just rinse the rice in the rice cooker insert
Eh, just depends on your preference. I know some people find it easier to wash it in a sieve. I used to do that for years until I finally got to the point where I mastered not losing a quarter cup of my rice in the drain every time I rinsed it while washing it directly in the pan 😂 and then finally got a rice cooker so I wash it in the insert now
As long as I have to do dishes anyway, it never bothers me to wash an extra one if it makes the cooking more efficient. I don’t love washing dishes, but one more doesn’t make much difference.
The rice cooker insert is non-stick; sloshing the rice around could scuff the non-stick coating. That's why you should always rinse your rice in a separate bowl or colander.
@@bsquad12345 I've beendoing it this way weekly for nearly 6 years and my rice cooker insert is in pristine condition still. I promise the rice grains scratching the Teflon coating is not an issue.
@@Silentgrace11 some people use a rice washing bowl. Especially in Hawaii where these small Brown bugs get into the pantry and in every dry item they can find. They even eat cardboard and the inner bag for something like cake mix. So some people want to wash the rice real good and use the rinsing bowl
I've been making these for a few years. I typically use salmon. I use pineapples. And I marinate my salmon in ginger paste, garlic paste, soy sesame seeds and honey. I also top my bowl in spicy siracha mayo
I live in Japan and there was a restaurant that serves Poke Bowls near my office. I ate Poke bowls daily. That's the only thing I miss ever since working from home.
Now you can make it yourself
You mean Donburi (丼)?
@@atsukorichards1675 no it's Poke Bowl. It says on their menu. They even have the exact same plate that Joshua uses haha
@@tulips7465 Humm. What is the difference, do you think?
@@atsukorichards1675 first off, donburi usually don't have avocados on them. Or oranges. And they're usually served in a smaller but deeper bowls. Poke Bowl is much more tasty in my opinion.
You are such a theatrical person 😂and I like you so very much. Cooking and personality on pointtttt👏
i never realized how different our poki bowls were in america! I usually prefer mine with salmon and a bunch of toppings so its crazy to see where it originated from :)
Poke*
@@wanderlustandsparkle4395 right! everywhere that makes poke here calls it poki, didnt even know that wasnt correct lol
I’m hosting a paint party Saturday and I’m making poke bowl buffet, this video had perfect timing.
My sister makes a mean tako poke. She makes it for me every time I go to visit.
Nothing beats tako poke.
Nothing.
Love your channel, have been recommending it to family and friends.👍👍👍This video has reminded me of how much I love poke bowls!!!!! I will now be having a poke bowl for lunch a couple of times this week!!! Have just added the stuff that I need to my Coles order!👌😊 (Coles is a supermarket chain here in Australia)
My favorite sushi/poke experiences were from food trucks in Hawaii. Definitely not as fancy as you get at Poke places on the mainland.
Just had my first Poke Bowl today and decided to watch this, this only makes it taste better
Great! Now I’m hungry 😑
Holy shit my boy landed Geico Congrats :D
Hey Josh!~ I know you're in the Austin area, so I'm wondering where you recommend sourcing sashimi-grade salmon? I've been doing poke bowls weekly using that good good frozen ahi tuna from HEB but I'd love to try some salmon to shake it up.
If you have a Costco membership, get their farmed salmon and freeze it for a week in your freezer. You need to get farmed since it won't have the same bacteria as wild salmon and you need to freeze it to remove any parasites.
@@TheHolySC what about tuna? Can I use those frozen ahi tuna fillets?
wait so are you saying if you just eat Costco sushi right away like normal it’ll just have a bunch of parasites because idk much about fish but that seems concerning
@@godisdead6611 if you buy fresh wild salmon and eat it uncooked you might get an infection from parasites that are normally in wild salmon. If you meant that Costco sells prepared sushi (I havent seen it at my local costco), then I am sure they already took all the necessary steps to avoid people getting an parasitic infection
The Central Market on South Lamar has frozen sushi grade tuna and salmon. Asahi Imports on Burnet has frozen sushi grade tuna, salmon, and yellow tail along with some other really great toppings and fillings!
Thank you for this video. Love your channel so much!
This could have been easily a “but cheaper” episode.
Loved the editing!
The one who is meant for you encourages you to be your best, but still loves and accepts you at your worst.
😁
Josh, you just made my day OMG. I love poke and this has to be the best video evarrrrrr, Nice and simple but not tooo simple. Defintely going to try to make the salmon soon
Good stuff. In the Hawaiian language the name for poke came from the style of cutting which was called also called poke which literally just means diced. Keep up the ono recipes.
Poke is however you want it. Great video you can come to the paina. It’s all about the marination👌🏽
That moment you remember cutting oranges like that in culinary class.
Me:"I've been here before"
I make a poke bowl (or something very similar) they tuna and a ponzu sauce that “cooks” the tuna! With rice, lettuce, avocado, carrot, bell pepper, edamame beans and radish! It’s super good, topped with nori pieces and toasted sesame seeds!
"You know what else is easy and breezy?"
...Covergirl?
"Saving on your car insurance"
...oh
you have a gift. It is not your cooking (which is fantastic by the way) but it is your charisma in front of a camera.
Joshua: "If you love sushi.. ..and you've never had poke"
Some Jamaican dude watching: "I've had Poke, mon"
Cool that u advised it’s not traditional! Respect! Ur own style 🤙🏽
Ah yes. The burrito bowls of the sushi world
3:00, rice cooker asserting dominance
Original poke had only salt and limo ko'u. Sometimes it had kukui nut, it was served always with poi not rice.
I was scrolling through the comments hoping somebody would mention this, haha
Yes true but modern times in Hawaii it can be served with either.
@@wanderlustandsparkle4395 this is true because people tastes change but I would never see my grandmother eat poke like that just like seeing people mixing poi with lomi lomi salmon, which to me is rather disgusting.
B Rollllll = badass roll!!!
