Hawaiian Tuna Poke

Last Weekend's kayak fishing morning trip produced the following







With Plenty of fish to eat, I had to try more recipes from the Fisherman's belly. https://www.fishermansbelly.com/

I made a special trip to the Asian market to buy seaweed and passion fruit for the Poke recipes.

First up was Maui Poke


This recipe creates a fantastic blend of flavors that are ridiculously delicious.


One caveat is that seaweeds vary. Mine was taken from a bulk bin that had been heavily salted. Although I triple washed the seaweed as suggested by the merchant, It still came out a bit too salty. I later added cucumber to the mix to dilute the saltiness. Next time I will use less seaweed and soak it for a day to help reduce the saltiness.

Second up was Hawaiian Poke with passion fruit. Since I had plenty of Blackfin Tuna, I used it instead of the more fishy Little Tunny for this recipe.

OMG! This stuff was so delicious!

It was so good, I could not stop eating it, which upset my wife as it was all gone before she had a chance to try it. Later in the year when the Blackfin are scarce, I will do this recipe again with the stronger flavored Little Tunny.

Two more thumbs up for the Fisherman's Belly! Thanks again, Yanni!

Thanks Mark, Yanni's recipes are awesome! We have our slow days also, but it's hard to go wrong during the spring. Tight lines!

Thanks for following my threads. Having spent 4 decades in California, and less than two on the East Coast, I am glad to be able to add some value to this forum. Hardly keeping it alive, but nice to be part of the group, and vicariously enjoy other's successes in some of my old stomping grounds.

When I get to be 60+ years old I hope I am more respectful and professional with others.

Yes, SE Florida is blessed with an incredible variety of fisheries that are well suited for kayak fishing and Hobie has been my choice of kayaks since I started in 2014.

Thanks for the awesome compliments!
