Tips

* To ensure that your ahi tuna is sushi-grade, look for fish that is bright red in color and has a firm texture.

* If you can't find sushi-grade ahi tuna, you can also use another type of firm fish, such as salmon or yellowfin tuna.

* Be sure to marinate the tuna for at least 30 minutes before serving, so that it has time to absorb the flavors of the marinade.

* Ahi poke is a versatile appetizer that can be customized to your liking. Feel free to add or omit any ingredients that you don't like.

* Serve ahi poke with your favorite wonton chips or crackers. You can also serve it with rice or salad.
