Method

Preparation Steps

1

Prepare the Pohole

Rinse the pohole thoroughly in cold water. If they are particularly long, you may want to cut them into smaller, manageable pieces.

2

Blanch the Pohole

Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pohole and blanch for about 2-3 minutes until tender but still crisp. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process.

3

Prepare the Oranges and Onion

Peel the Ka’u oranges and segment them, removing any seeds. Thinly slice the sweet onion.

4

Make the Dressing

In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper.

5

Combine the Salad

In a large bowl, combine the blanched pohole, orange segments, and sliced onion. Drizzle with the dressing and toss gently to combine.

6

Add Toppings

Sprinkle sesame seeds and katsuobushi on top of the salad just before serving.
