* To prepare fresh frozen poi, remove from freezer and allow to sit at room temperature for 2 hours. Open package and break poi into small pieces. Add poi pieces to a microwave safe bowl, add 1/4 cup water and microwave on high for 4 minutes or until smooth. You can whisk the poi with a fork to smooth it out. Once smooth, cover poi with 1/4 cup water and refrigerate for 3-4 hours. When ready to use, pour out excess water.
