2. Remove them to a large bowl and toss with a pinch of sea salt, olive oil, and lemon zest.
3. Let almonds cool to room temperature before chopping into small pieces.
4. To make the classic sauce, whisk together all ingredients until well combined.
5. To assemble the poke bowls, place 1/2-1 cup rice (depending on hunger level) in the bottom of four bowls.
6. Toss salmon with the classic sauce and arrange on top of the rice along with lemon cucumbers, baby radishes, shiso leaves, avocados and fresno chiles.
7. Garnish with almond crunch.
