Notes
Storage: Store any leftover salmon crudo in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Ensure that the salmon is covered in the citrus soy dressing to maintain its flavor and freshness. It’s best to consume it as soon as possible for optimal taste and quality.
Reheating: Salmon crudo is best served cold and does not require reheating. If you need to serve it later, keep it chilled until just before serving. Avoid heating as it may change the texture and quality of the dish.
Serving: Serve the salmon crudo immediately on chilled plates for the best presentation and taste. Consider garnishing with microgreens or additional chives to enhance the visual appeal and add freshness to the dish.
Chef’s Tip: For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the citrus soy dressing for a subtle kick. Additionally, using high-quality, sushi-grade salmon is crucial for ensuring safety and flavor in this raw dish.
