(Wake-up-in-the-middle-of-the-night-wishing-I-had-some-craving!) I did a little research into the history and varieties of poke, and last night finally sated the craving. Picked up some sashimi grade tuna from Uwajimaya, and with the addition of some baby ginger & 1 tbp. \"Asian Pear\" sake, made your recipe above. It was delightful. Fresh. Quick. Delicious. I also picked up a smaller piece of Hamachi (yellowtail), and used 1 tbsp pomegranate molasses, 1 tbsp soy, and 3 tbsp of the same sake as above, along with 1 tbsp thinly sliced scallion. The flavor was light and citrusy, and went perfectly with the Hamachi. Thanks for the wonderful recipe, and for inspiring me to find out more about this dish! <ul> <li><em>Good to hear such a smashing thumbs up OCG! And adding pomegranate molasses and sake is a great idea. Yumm --McAuliflower</em></li></ul> Since the day I first read this post, I have craved this dish.
