Salmon And Tuna Tartar With Spicy Lemon Ginger Vinaigrette Recipes

TUNA AND SALMON TARTARE WITH ENDIVE LEAF

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine tuna, 1 shallot, 1 teaspoon ginger, 1/2 teaspoon lime juice, soy sauce, 1 teaspoon sesame oil and 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil. Using a plastic spatula gently fold the ingredients together until just incorporated. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper.
• In a separate bowl, combine salmon and the remaining shallot, ginger, lime juice, soy sauce, sesame oil, and olive oil, again using a plastic spatula to gently incorporate ingredients. Season, to taste.
• Separate the leaves of the endive. Serve 1 1/2 teaspoons of salmon tartar in half of the leaves and fill the remaining leaves with the tuna tartar. Garnish with caper berries. Serve chilled.

SPICY TUNA TARTARE

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, soy sauce, sriracha, garlic and ginger. Add the tuna to the sauce and gently stir to coat. Adjust seasonings.
• To serve, top each endive leaf with about 1 tablespoon of the crudo, some Pickled Radishes and a sprinkle of chives. Serve immediately.
• In a glass measuring cup, add the hot water, vinegar, sugar, salt, honey and some pepper. Stir until the sugar and salt dissolve. Add the radishes to a glass jar and pour the pickling liquid over them. Set aside to pickle for 1 hour. After 1 hour, cover the jar and refrigerate.

AHI TUNA TARTAR WITH WASABI CAVIAR AND SPICY GINGER VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Place tuna, marinade and sesame seeds in mixing bowl. Stir and let marinate for 5 minutes. While marinating, assemble "tower" base with avocado and pineapple. Top with marinated tuna and pack tightly.
• In a medium saucepan, heat sesame oil until smoking. Add the garlic, shallot, and ginger. Saute until garlic begins to change color. Deglaze pan with sake. Bring to a simmer and let reduce by half. Add vinegar, soy, and sugar. Return to a boil, blend and then strain into clean saucepan. Whisk in slurry and bring to a boil to thicken. Remove from heat. Chill before using.

SALMON TARTARE

Steps:

• Carefully pick over the salmon to remove all traces of bone. Cut away and discard any flesh that has a darkened tinge.
• Put the salmon on a flat surface and chop it finely with a knife. Do not use a food processor or a blender. You do not want to make a smooth paste. There should be about two cups or slightly less, closely packed.
• Put the salmon in a mixing bowl and add the dill, oil, lime juice, salt, pepper and onions. Stir to blend thoroughly. Serve in small portions with dill and mustard sauce on the side and buttered toast triangles.

SALMON OR TUNA TARTARE

Steps:

• Sprinkle the cucumber with salt, and let sit for 15 minutes while you prepare the remaining ingredients. Then rinse and drain on paper towels. Meanwhile, place the shallots in a bowl and cover with cold water. Let sit five minutes, then drain, rinse and drain again on paper towels.
• In a medium bowl, toss the cucumber, fish, shallots, cilantro and capers with lime juice, rice vinegar and olive oil. Season with salt; if you want to add a little spice, add a pinch of cayenne. Taste and adjust seasonings. Chill until ready to serve (but not too long). Place spoonfuls on endive leaves, red pepper squares, cucumber rounds or croutons, and serve.
