A quick salmon crudo with soy-sesame dressing. Tender fresh slices of salmon bathing in a slightly spicy dressing with citrus notes, a touch of garlic and some fresh ginger make this dish hit all the right notes. A perfect balance of bright, punchy, and downright delicious flavors.
Just add some shallots and you’ll have a perfect appetizer with a luxurious texture and fragrance. This one will wow your dinner guests. What’s even better? It takes only 10 minutes to throw together. Oh, and did I mention there is no cooking involved!?
Crudo refers to a dish of raw fish, simply dressed with olive oil, lemon juice and a pinch of salt. This recipe adds a few key ingredients but is totally dependent on the freshness of the fish.
Here, we use sushi-grade salmon and finish it off with flake salt, black pepper and fresh cilantro. Simplicity at its best.
Let me guide you through the recipe with this step-by-step VIDEO.
RECIPE NOTES
- I recommend purchasing high quality sushi-grade salmon for this recipe. You can buy it at many super markets. If you can’t find it, use frozen wild salmon and slice it into 1/8 inch/4 mm-thick slices
- it’s a great appetizer served individually, or in platters
- you can also serve it as a light lunch with a crisp cucumber salad or as a quick snack for a lazy-don’t-feel-like-cooking-evening
- feel free to play with flavors, add capers, chili flakes, more ginger… you’re the chef, and there’re so many possibilities
- make it as spicy as you can handle
