Why now Sushi Bowl?
Sushi bowls have been present in all social media for a long time now. Sushi bowls are also often referred to as poke bowls. So if you’ve never heard of sushi bowls, you should at least have heard of the word poke bowl by now. There are plenty of them on Instagram , but also more and more often on the menus of Asian restaurants. The word poke is a Hawaiian word meaning “to cut or chop”. On the poke bowl, it refers to chunks of sliced and marinated fish tossed on rice and flavored with sauce.

You get a hearty bowl of sushi rice with so many delicious flavors and textures. Who could resist? It’s so easy to cut everything up, then layer individual bowls together and serve.
