Salmon Crudo
Description
To make Salmon Crudo, skinless sushi-grade salmon is sliced thinly against the grain and arranged on a serving plate. The fish is dressed with a mixture of extra-virgin olive oil and fresh lemon juice, providing a light, citrusy coating. Thin slices of red onion add a gentle sharpness, while small capers contribute bursts of briny flavor. Fresh dill and minced chives lend herbaceous notes that complement the salmon's buttery texture.
The result is a dish with tender salmon slices paired with refreshing and piquant garnishes. This no-cook preparation showcases the freshness and silky quality of high-grade salmon. Lemon wedges served on the side allow for additional acidity if desired.
