For the best flavor and texture, use the freshest, highest-quality sushi-grade ahi tuna you can find. If you can't find Maui onions, substitute with another sweet onion variety like Vidalia or Walla Walla. Adjust the amount of chile pepper to your preferred level of spice. Toasting the sesame seeds and macadamia nuts enhances their flavor and aroma. Toast them in a dry skillet over medium heat until lightly golden and fragrant. Poke is best enjoyed soon after it's made. While it can be stored in the refrigerator for a few hours, the texture of the tuna may change over time. Serve with steamed rice, avocado, or seaweed salad for a complete and satisfying meal.
