I love ahi poke, 'dis da kine brah, melts in your mouth, ono. I did add 1/2 teaspoon of wasabi powder for a bite. The toasted sesame seeds and mac nuts adds a little crunch, which I love. I did use about 2 lbs. of ahi, fresh off the boat, had to clean fish myself, very fresh. MMM-YUMMMMM!!

I made this recipe as an appetizer for gourmet night (hawaiian theme) and it received rave reviews. I altered recipe based on reviews I read: I reduced soy sauce to 1/3 cup low sodium version based on using 1.5 lbs of yellowfin tuna (Cost Saving Tip: buy the tuna nuggets and price goes from $18/lb to $5/lb...same thing except leftovers not used for fillets/steaks). I used tabasco sauce instead of red pepper flakes & 1/3 cup chopped sweet onion with 1/3 cup green onions. I also added a tsp. of fresh grated ginger and the juice from 1 lemon. I, too, omitted the nuts and served on romaine lettuce leaves. Thank you for a great recipe.

Substitute the mac nuts and green onions for thin sliced sweet onions. Absolutely deee-licious!! Or, as the locals in Hawaii say.."Broke da mouth!"

This isn't good at all. I live in Hawaii and we sometimes get free ahi. I like the taste of poke better with cubed ahi, sesame oil, shoyu, tahini, a dash of oyster sauce, chopped chives, chopped maui onion, minced garlic, and seaweed. All to taste. You can omit the oyster sauce or omit the garlic. I would not recommend making this "nut" version at all.

Loved this! I didn't have the nuts but didn't miss them - I did add a large tsp of minced ginger (from jar) and it added much flavor. Also followed other suggestions of cutting soy in half and using part teryaki sauce. Will make this again and again. I served over mixed salad greens as first course - got raves.

It was ok, next time I'd cut down the red pepper, even though I like spicy, this ended up too spicy, even hubby thought so. Didn't add the nuts

This was awesome! I made it for a dinner party I had and everyone loved it... including the non-sushi eaters! I did omit the mac nuts and I used Aloha Shoyu sauce instead of regular soy sauce. I also used about 2 1/2 pounds. I will definitely be making this recipe many more times!

Ahi Poke can be made many different ways. My favorite Ahi Poke was prepared by a Hawaiian BBQ restaurant. This recipe is similar to that of the restaurant. I added ginger (chopped small), white onion (sliced), lemon juice, and I used Shoyu sauce instead of regular soy sauce. It was delicious. My family asked for it two weekends in a row. Thanks for sharing your recipe.

Onolicious! This is the basic shoyu poke style that you see everywhere in Hawaii. There are many different types of poke, so keep that in mind when comparing to the traditional Hawaiian poke made with inamona. Also, not every style of poke has seaweed in it!

i combined all the ingredients (minus the mac nuts) before i poured the mixture onto the tuna. i ended up using about 2/3 of everything. i definitely would agree with others that said to use low sodium soy sauce. i didn't and i thought it was way too salty. my friends thought it was good still.

Real poke should have some seaweed, but I think it's a type that you're not going to find on the mainland (except maybe around SF). This recipe was a fantastic "mainland imitation." I would cut back on the soy to suit your taste, but be sure to use a good quality soy since so much of this flavor is based on that seasoning.

I have made this twice now and it has come out great each time. It is very easy to make and is very tasty. I don't use 100% soy sauce...I follow some of the other commenter's suggestions and use 50% terriyaki sauce and 50% soy sauce
