Ingredients
- 12 oz salmon sushi-grade
- 2 teaspoons sesame seeds plus more for garnish, toasted
- 3 green onions finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon capers chopped
- 2 tablespoons onion chopped
- 1 lemon (you’ll need about ¼ teaspoon lemon zest, and 2 teaspoons lemon juice)
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce
- 1 avocado ripe
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- dill optional, chopped
- jalapeño minced, optional
Instructions
- Cut the salmon into 1/3-inch cubes.
- In a medium mixing bowl, add salmon, toasted sesame seeds, green onions, capers, ¼ teaspoon of lemon zest, and soy sauce. Mix well. Taste a piece and add more seasonings if needed.
- Cut the avocado in half and remove the pit. Cut into 1/3-inch cubes.
- Add cubed avocado, salt, pepper, 2 teaspoons of lemon juice, optional jalapeno, and dill to a mixing bowl. Mix until combined.
- Taste test and add more salt if needed.
- Place a food ring mold (you can make one at home with a plastic bottle) on a plate.
- Add the avocado mixture at the bottom. Then add the salmon mixture on top. Gently pressing down to make sure there are no gaps. (You can also use a ramekin to shape your tartare. You’ll need to fill it with the salmon mixture and avocado mix. Then reverse it into the serving plate.)
- Lift and remove the mold gently. Garnish with more sesame seeds and cilantro. Serve the salmon tartare immediately.
Notes
- Make sure to buy high-quality sushi-grade salmon for this recipe. You’ll need to cut it into about 1/3-inch cubes.

- DON’T mix your salmon with the other ingredients until just before serving.
