Poke is Hawaiian in origin, but has caught on stateside as fast-casual poke bowl concepts spring up coast to coast. Chef Kathy Casey of Lucky Louie Fish Shack in Seattle creates a sweet-spicy dressing for her rendition, combining gochujang and honey to toss with cubes of salmon or ahi runa. Kimchi, green apple and scallions add interest to the mix, which is served over steamed rice studded with cooked sorghum. The poke also works well over crisp greens in the well-loved bowl format.

1 cup soy sauce

3/4 cup sesame oil

1/2 cup orange blossom honey

1/4 cup minced ginger

6 tbsp. gochujang
