Basic Poke image

Poke (pronounced POH-kay), is a Hawaiian raw-fish salad made with marlin and ahi (yellowfin) or aku (skipjack) tuna. I make my own version of poke now, here where I live in Oregon, when the weather is good and hot. I drive over to my local fish market, and pick up some fresh kajiki marlin, which I cut into cubes. I buy my seaweed pickled in a bottle from an Asian food market, and I chop a small bunch with half a white onion, toss the garnish onto the cubed marlin in a stainless-steel bowl, squeeze a teaspoon or two of fresh wasabi onto it and mix in splashes of tamari sauce.
