Chef Notes:
Got leftovers? No problem! Tuck your poke into an airtight container and slip it into the fridge. It'll keep playing the flavor game for 1-2 days. Just remember, with poke, the fresher, the better.
Now, let's talk customization. Not a fan of yellowfin tuna? No worries! You can swap out the star of the show for sushi-grade salmon. Want to go beyond the sea? Try a poke-inspired bowl with cooked chicken or tofu. The world is your oyster...or your poke bowl!
