Main Ingredients

Sushi Rice

Sesame Dressing

Garnishes

Method

Preparing Sushi Rice

  1. 1

    Rinse the Rice

    In a fine mesh strainer, rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This removes excess starch.

  2. 2

    Cook the Rice

    In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed sushi rice and water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for an additional 10 minutes.

  3. 3

    Season the Rice

    In a small bowl, mix the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until dissolved. Transfer the cooked rice to a large bowl, and gently fold in the vinegar mixture. Allow to cool to room temperature.

Preparing the Ahi Tuna

  1. 4

    Slice the Tuna

    Using a sharp knife, slice the Ahi tuna into bite-sized cubes. Place them in a bowl.

  2. 5

    Marinate the Tuna

    If desired, lightly drizzle the sliced tuna with a bit of soy sauce for flavor, and toss gently.

Making the Sesame Dressing

  1. 6

    Combine Ingredients

    In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, honey, and sesame seeds until well combined.

Assembling the Poke Bowl

  1. 7

    Layer the Ingredients

    In a bowl, start with a base of sushi rice. Top with cubed Ahi tuna, avocado (sliced), and seaweed salad.

  2. 8

    Drizzle Dressing

    Drizzle the sesame dressing over the assembled bowl.

  3. 9

    Add Garnishes

    Garnish with sliced green onions, radish, and pickled ginger to taste.
