Poké, the Hawaiian dish that brings diced fish and fresh ingredients into a convenient bowl.
“Fun fact – poke (pronounced “poke-ay”, in case you were wondering) gets its name from the food prep. Poke means “to slice or cut” in Hawaiian. Apparently, most people know that poké is a Hawaiian national dish but few know that it was ‘invented’ by fishermen, who would season the cut-offs from their daily catch (Pohkay) whilst sat on their boats, and eat them. Cool.”
