Poke, Hawai‘i’s favorite food has taken off. It is sold, served, and savored everywhere—in bustling fish markets, in humble plate lunch places, at weekend picnics, at family gatherings, and at restaurants both in Hawai‘i and the continental U.S. With over 140 recipes, including contributions from his friends, Sam Choy demonstrates the amazing versatility of this bite-size food. He begins with traditional poke dishes, then proceeds to recipes influenced by the flavors and seasonings brought to Hawai‘i by Asian newcomers.

Pilgrimage & Exile
The Hawaiian Islands were an independent kingdom when Mother
Marianne Cope, the Provincial of the Franciscan Sisters of Syracuse,
New York, was asked in 1883 to send some of her Sisters to care for the
Island’s sick poor, especially the victims of leprosy. Her answer was:
“I desire to accept this work in the name of the great St. Francis.”
The same year she personally led the first group of six Sisters
to Hawai‘i. They were the first members of a religious community
founded in the United States to enter upon mission work in a foreign
land. The Islands were not annexed to the United States until fifteen
years later; and they became the fiftieth State only in 1959.
Mother Marianne did not return to Syracuse after she went to
Hawai‘i in 1883; she remained in the Islands for the rest of her life.

Hawai‘i was the first of the Hawaiian Islands to be settled by the early Polynesians and the only island influenced by a volcanic atmosphere. It was here where most of the major battles in the civil wars to unite the islands were waged and where the greatest and first of the Hawaiian monarchs emerged.
