Elegant Salmon Ceviche
-1 1/2 pounds salmon fillet
-2 tablespoons finely chopped red onion
-2 tablespoons finely chopped shallots
-1/4 cup finely chopped jalapeņo pepper (with or without
seeds, removing seeds will make the mixture less spicy if
you prefer.)
-1/4 cup finely chopped cilantro
-1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
-6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
-1 teaspoon kosher or sea salt
-1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
-Cilantro Sprig(s) and lime wedge to garnish
In a small mixing bowl, mix together all the ingredients
except the salmon.
With a very sharp, long-bladed knife, with clean and
gloved hands, slice the salmon as thin as possible,
cutting in the direction as the grain of the fish. Slicing
on a diagonal will allow for longer, thinner slices
discarding skin. Slices should resemble sliced smoked
salmon.
Place the salmon slices in a large, shallow pan. Cover
with liquid mixture and allow to marinate for at least
4-12 hours.
Serve several slices with thinly sliced white toasts cut
into triangles that resemble tortilla chips before
toasting. Garnish with a sprig of cilantro.

Everyone. We have a couple of great ceviche recipes on our
board and thought I'd share one with our friends at the
recipe exchange! Salmon Ceviche also works well. (Think
steak tartar with a South American flair!) This
presentation is also quite elegant although it could
easily be made like a traditional ceviche recipe, that is
cut up into cubes and tossed and presented in a martini
glass or other dish."
