Poke - Hawaii's "sushi"

For MANY days, I've been craving delicious poke (poh-keh) from Hawaii. At heart, it's raw fish chunks, tossed with yum extras: limu (seaweed), onions, other spices (I like red sea salt)...

Native Hawaiians ate a lot of fish, naturally, but poke evolved with each wave of immigrants and their culinary influence. On Oahu, the poke from Tanioka's, above, is super ono (delish).
