Follow The Directions
01
Step
5 mins
Carefully remove the skin from the salmon fillet and excise any dark, grey-colored bloodline. This ensures a clean, pure flavor. (5 minutes)
02
Step
5 mins
Dice the salmon into small, uniform cubes. Consistency is key for an elegant tartare. Place the diced salmon in a chilled bowl. (5 minutes)
03
Step
2 mins
Gently incorporate the minced shallot, parsley, chives, and cornichon into the salmon. (2 minutes)
04
Step
1 mins
Drizzle with fresh lemon juice, and season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to your liking. (1 minute)
05
Step
5 mins
Allow the tartare to marinate for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the lemon juice to lightly 'cook' the salmon. (5 minutes)
06
Step
Serve immediately on buttered, crusty brown toast or your favorite accompaniment.
Ensure your salmon is of the highest quality and specifically designated as 'sushi-grade' or 'sashimi-grade' to guarantee its safety for raw consumption.
For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a tiny drop of high-quality olive oil or a dash of Tabasco sauce.
Chill your serving bowl and utensils beforehand to maintain the salmon's optimal temperature.
Taste frequently and adjust the lemon juice and seasoning to your personal preference. The goal is a balanced and vibrant flavor profile.
