Smoked Salmon Tartare
Lately, it is very hard to find a good quality fish in the stores. The once available are visibly not fresh and for sure not suitable for raw eating. But as I still craved a good salmon tartare I decided to experiment a little bit 🙂 I made one with smoked salmon 🙂 It turned out very yummy and only an experienced foodie would tell the difference. The recipe is very easy and besides the smoked salmon, it requires only a few ingredients. Small hint before cooking, be very cautious with the salt. The smoked salmon can be very salty so it is better to try it before you add a spoonful of salt into it 🙂
This recipe serves 2 portions and requires less than 10 minutes for preparation.
PS: the blue bowl I used is handmade and created by Ceramic Studio MGart
Smoked Salmon Tartare
[ingredients title=”Ingredients”]
- 250g of smoked salmon
- juice from 1/2 of lemon
- juice from 1/4 of an orange
- 3tbsp of olive oil
- fresh dill and chives
- salt & pepper
- Optional: grilled baguette
[/ingredients]
[directions title=”Directions”]
- Finely chop the smoked salmon, chives, and the dill. Place everything in a bowl and mix well. Add the olive oil, the orange juice and mix properly. At the end, season with a pinch of salt (if needed), black pepper and add the lemon juice. Mix everything well and serve immediately. From my experience is better to add the lemon juice at the end of the preparation. If you add it earlier the acids from lemon juice can make the salmon hard.
- Serve the tartare with a grilled baguette (optional) and enjoy 🙂
