I don’t know about you, but I LOVE poisson cru! Literally the French name translates to “poisson” = “fish” and “cru” = “raw” … sooo it’s “raw fish” but it’s also so much more! Sashimi is awesome and so is poke (pronounced poh-kay) but the Tahitians came up with a tangy, zesty, fresh, healthy way to prepare this amazing dish. You can get a ton of different recipes online but I tend to lean toward going “authentic.” In this video, our Tahitian tour guide shows us how he makes poisson cru for his own family. It’s simple, it’s easy and it’s DELICIOUS! Check it out!
