Tips & Notes
- Put the salmon in the freezer for 15-20 minutes before dicing. Firm fish cuts into clean small cubes instead of smearing.
- Add the lemon juice close to serving time. Acid starts to firm and turn the salmon opaque if it sits for long.
- Keep the salmon cold from purchase to plate and serve the tartare the day it is made. Choose capers and crackers labeled gluten-free.
