1 bunch fresh shiso sliced (reserve whole leaf per serving)

6 whole nori sheets and 6 half-sheets, toasted

Kosher salt/ground pepper to taste

Hot pepper sauce

Directions

  1. Combine ingredients in bowl and cover. Refrigerate for 1/2 hour. Lay whole shiso leaf on plate. Place a scoop of poke on shiso. Then place a scoop of hot rice next to poke. Place a half sheet of toasted nori vertically between poke and rice. Sprinkle sesame seeds, chopped scallions, and shiso.

Delish! I stay away from salt. So, I placed 1/8 tsp. soy, and did not use the Kosher salt in recipe.
