Salmon Carpaccio is a fish recipe that is simple to make but very striking. It only looks elaborate: the key to the dish’s success is the quality of the salmon. As always with fish carpaccio, you don’t need many ingredients besides extra virgin olive oil and lemon juice.

When making marinated salmon carpaccio, it is essential that the smoked salmon is fresh and of excellent quality. You can never be too careful about food safety when eating raw fish.

In our recipe for salmon carpaccio we also use some pink grapefruit flesh, which not only enhances the flavor of the salmon but also acts as a “degreaser”, balancing the texture and the feeling that salmon usually leaves in the mouth.

Salmon Carpaccio is a great recipe that works well both in summer and as a tempting appetizer for your Christmas menu.

Method

To make the Salmon Carpaccio, arrange the smoked salmon slices on a serving plate. Dress them with a drizzle of olive oil, a little lemon juice and a grinding of pepper.
Now peel the pink grapefruit, separate it into segments and, using a very sharp knife, carefully clean a few segments by removing the membrane that covers them, so you are left with just the flesh.
Now arrange a few pieces of pink grapefruit flesh, a few pomegranate seeds and, if you like, some capers on top, and your Salmon Carpaccio is ready. Finally, remember to download our App with exclusive content and fewer ads!

Variations and Alternatives

If you like, once the salmon slices are arranged on the serving plate, you can marinate them with a classic citronette, a simple lemon and oil dressing, and let everything rest in the fridge for 10-15 minutes before serving.
