Poke with salmon - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, you can use tuna, yellowtail, or even cooked shrimp as alternatives to salmon. Just ensure the fish is fresh and sushi-grade if consuming raw.
For a low-carb option, replace rice with cauliflower rice, zucchini noodles, or a bed of mixed greens to keep it light and healthy.
Store leftover poke in an airtight container for up to 24 hours. However, for best quality, consume it fresh as the fish and avocado may degrade over time.
Absolutely! Replace salmon with cubed tofu or tempeh, and marinate it the same way. Add edamame or mushrooms for extra texture and flavor.
You can substitute cane sugar with honey, maple syrup, or regular white sugar in the marinade for a similar sweet balance.
Toss avocado slices lightly with lemon or lime juice to slow oxidation, or add them just before serving to keep them fresh and vibrant.
Freezing raw marinated salmon isn’t recommended for poke, as the texture will change upon thawing. It’s best enjoyed fresh.
Try adding mango slices, pickled ginger, seaweed salad, crushed peanuts, or a drizzle of sriracha mayo for extra flavor and crunch.
