| Lomi Lomi Salmon is a very popular luau dish in Hawaii,
although it may be an acquired taste to some. Some people like to eat it
by itself while others like to mix it in their poi. Dice the tomatoes, but do not strain them, and place them in a large mixing bowl. Dice the onions and chop the green onions and mix them with the tomatoes. Shred the salted salmon into very small pieces and add them to the mix. Cover the bowl and place it in the refrigerator for half an hour to an hour. Taste the lomi salmon. The longer you let it sit, the saltier it gets. If it tastes bland, add more salted salmon (or salt). Not all salted salmon are equally salty so experiment with the ratio of salted salmon, tomatoes, and onions to suite your taste buds. But remember that it is supposed to be salty, but not so salty that it is overpowering. |
