When the food industry hits the (coconut) nut

THE CRAB THAT WAS HIDDEN IN A COCONUT

While waiting for the sun and warmth to return to our beautiful region after a harsh winter and a late start to spring, I created a poké bowl recipe using snow crab.

A typical dish on the island of Hawaii, the poké bowl is traditionally prepared with cubes of marinated raw fish and has been gaining popularity in Quebec in recent years.

TO ADD A LITTLE EXOTIC TOUCH TO THIS RECIPE, I TOOK INSPIRATION FROM ANOTHER FOOD TREND: COCONUT!

Indeed, grocery store shelves are now flooded with food products flavored with coconut or containing coconut oil.

Although some attribute benefits to this oil on cardiovascular health, science tells us that coconut oil has, at best, a neutral effect on cardiovascular health. Thus, its use benefits the marketing and profits of food companies more than your health.

You can visit the links at the bottom of the article for more details on this.

I won't make you salivate any longer, my trick to tease the taste buds with the sweet flavor of coconut without using its oil is to cook with white balsamic vinegar with natural coconut flavor!

Without further ado, here is my snow crab poke bowl recipe, which takes 15 to 30 minutes to prepare depending on whether the snow crab or the cook wins the battle!
