Assembling Salmon Carpaccio
- Thinly slice salmon at a low slant as shown in the pictures above. Lay salmon slices evenly around outside of 4 plates.
- Place 1 cup arugula in the center of each of 4 plates.
- Drizzle flavored mayonnaise dressing evenly around each plate over the salmon. Sprinkle salmon and arugula with capers, red onion slivers and extra salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve right away as is or add thin slices of toasted crostini to scoop carpaccio onto.
Notes
- Note: Raw seafood is not recommended for pregnant women or children under 5. Use cooked flaked salmon instead of raw if required.
- Serve with extra wedges of lemon and sea salt for guests to season their own carpaccio to taste.
