Method

Prepare the Sushi Rice

  1. 1

    Rinse the Rice

    Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch.

  2. 2

    Cook the Rice

    In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed sushi rice and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover and simmer for about 20 minutes until water is absorbed.

  3. 3

    Season the Rice

    In a small bowl, mix rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until dissolved. Once the rice is cooked, stir this mixture into the rice while it is still warm. Let the rice cool to room temperature.

Marinate the Proteins

  1. 4

    Make the Marinade

    In a bowl, combine soy sauce, sesame oil, lime juice, honey, grated ginger, and minced garlic to create the marinade.

  2. 5

    Marinate the Fish

    Cut the tuna and salmon into bite-sized cubes and place them in a separate bowl. Pour half of the marinade over the fish and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes.

  3. 6

    Cook the Shrimp

    Boil the shrimp in salted water for 2-3 minutes until pink and opaque. Drain and set aside.

Assemble the Poke Bowl

  1. 7

    Add the Rice Base

    In a bowl, place a generous scoop of the seasoned sushi rice as the base.

  2. 8

    Add the Proteins

    Top the rice with the marinated tuna and salmon cubes, followed by boiled shrimp, crab meat, and masago.

  3. 9

    Add the Vegetables

    Arrange sliced cucumbers, avocado, radishes, and seaweed salad on top of the proteins.

  4. 10

    Finish with Toppings

    Sprinkle with chopped green onions and sesame seeds. Drizzle with soy sauce and sriracha sauce to taste.
