Description
Quick, delicious, and quintessentially Hawaiian, poke (POH keh) is diced raw* fish that’s served as an appetizer or as a meal with rice and toppings. The kit comes with ahi tuna pre-cut in half-inch cubes, a packet of our own Hawaiian poke seasoning, and a recipe card with easy instructions. Known also as yellowfin, our ahi tuna comes from artisanal Indonesian fishery in the Western Central Pacific Ocean and meets rigorous standards for resource management, human rights, and working conditions. Unlike other ahi tuna sold in the U. S. , which is typically exposed to synthetic carbon monoxide (CO) gas to preserve its natural color, our supplier’s cutting-edge technology uses natural hickory woodchips to preserve color and taste while enhancing food safety and extending shelf-life once thawed.

Flash-Frozen is the New Fresh: Much of our seafood comes to you frozen, which means you can enjoy seasonally harvested fish and shellfish any time of the year. Freezing fish rapidly and within hours of catch locks in flavor and freshness, giving us straight-from-the-sea taste without the risk of spoiling. Major advances in rapid-freeze technologies mean seafood can be frozen solid in a matter of seconds, which minimizes damage to cell walls, preserving taste, texture, and moisture levels. The process of freezing seafood has evolved to the point where frozen fish is comparable toâif not better thanâfresh. In fact, consumer taste-tests conducted by Oregon State University consistently put frozen seafood on top. Marine Stewardship Council: The MSC is a global nonprofit organization that works with scientists, fisheries, industry experts, and other nonprofits to improve the way our oceans are fished. In the MSC program, sustainable seafood means that it was fished from stocks with healthy populations, with minimal impact on the environment, and in an area with effective, responsible management. When you see the MSC blue fish label on a Vital Choice product, you can be confident it comes from a certified sustainable source, one that is helping to combat mislabeling and seafood fraud. Our MSC chain of custody certification number is MSC-C-50265. | Ahi Tuna Poke Kit (1)
