Guaranteed to impress, this seafood tartare is a fresh and flavorful showcase of premium ingredients.
1. Begin by finely dicing the fresh salmon into small cubes (approximately 5mm or 1/4 inch). Place the diced salmon into a large mixing bowl.
2. Slice the smoked salmon into small strips and then chop into small pieces. Add the smoked salmon to the mixing bowl with the fresh salmon.
3. Finely chop the red onion and rinse briefly under cold water to mellow its sharpness. Drain and add the onion to the mixing bowl.
4. Chop the capers and dill finely, reserving a small amount of dill for garnish. Add both ingredients to the bowl.
5. In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper until emulsified. Pour this dressing over the salmon mixture.
6. Gently mix all the ingredients together until evenly combined. Be careful not to overmix to preserve the delicate texture of the fish.
7. Optional: If using avocado for serving, dice it into small cubes and lightly toss it in a bit of lemon juice to prevent browning.
8. Serve the tartare immediately for the freshest taste. Use a ring mold for a professional presentation, layering the tartare and optional avocado on plates. Garnish with the reserved dill.
9. Serve with crackers or toasted bread on the side for scooping and enjoy!
