If you're looking for a delicious and elegant seafood dish, salmon carpaccio and halibut tartare are two excellent choices. These dishes are both light and refreshing, and they're perfect for a summer meal. Salmon carpaccio is made with thinly sliced raw salmon that is marinated in a citrusy dressing. Halibut tartare is made with diced raw halibut that is mixed with a variety of ingredients, such as capers, onions, and herbs. Both dishes are typically served with a garnish of microgreens or thinly sliced vegetables.

SALMON CARPACCIO AND HALIBUT TARTARE
Steps:
- To prepare the salmon carpaccio: Slice the salmon crosswise into 4 equal pieces. Paint each slice lightly with olive oil and place between 2 pieces of waxed paper. Using a meat mallet or wine bottle, with light tapping motions, very gently pound the salmon to about 1/16- inch thickness. Refrigerate in the waxed paper until ready to serve.
- Put the shallot, lemon zest and lemon juice in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Add the capers. Whisk in 3 tablespoons olive oil.
- To prepare the halibut tartare: Dice the halibut as small as possible, put it in a bowl and put the bowl on ice.
- Just before serving, season the halibut with salt and pepper. Gently stir in the scallions, cucumber, jalapeño, olive oil and lime juice.
- For each serving, carefully peel one sheet of waxed paper from the salmon and invert onto a chilled plate. Remove the remaining waxed paper. Sprinkle the salmon lightly with salt. Drizzle with the lemon-caper oil and sprinkle with the chives and nasturtium petals.
- Spoon a 2-ounce mound of halibut tartare onto each plate, next to the salmon. Sprinkle with the dill.

Steps:
- Cut salmon in small pieces, about 1/4-inch thick. Set aside or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve. Slice cucumber into very thin (almost transparent) rounds and set aside. In a medium bowl, mix together the shallots, dill, chives, capers, lemon juice and finally add the salmon. Cover and refrigerate if not using immediately. Just before serving, chop the tomatoes, season with salt and pepper and a sprinkling of olive oil, and stir to combine. On a serving plate, spread the cucumber slices to cover 2/3 of the plate, leaving a space in the center of the plate. Then arrange the salmon over the cucumber, then top with the seasoned tomatoes. Garnish with sliced avocado and chopped chives. Serve with endive, toast points or crackers.

Steps:
- Lightly brush a sheet of plastic with olive oil and lay a piece of fish on it. Lightly brush surface of fish with olive oil and lay another sheet of plastic on top. Using the flat side of a meat tenderizer or a rolling pin, gently pound fish until it is very thin, 1/4 to 1/8 inch thick. Take care not to tear the fish; if it seems that it will break apart, stop when it's a little thicker than 1/4 inch. Repeat with remaining pieces. Gently unpeel top layer of plastic and then set it back over the fish. Place in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- Whisk together wasabi, vinegar, soy sauce, yogurt, and cream in a small bowl or measuring cup.
- Toss cucumber with rice vinegar and sesame oil.
- Cut each piece of flattened fish into smaller pieces and fan out on plates or on a platter. Using a pastry brush, brush each piece of fish with the wasabi sauce. Place a spoonful of the cucumber salad on each plate, garnish with shiso, cilantro or chervil and serve.

SALMON TARTARE
A beautifully simple preparation of raw fish that is a celebration of freshness. The thing I love about this dish is the magic worked by the lemon juice. As well as imparting sharp fresh flavor, the acid in the lemon juice affects the protein in the fish, causing a cooked texture on the surface of the meat whilst leaving the centre rare and soft. Serve with buttered crusty brown toast.

Steps:
- Rinse and dry the salmon, then wrap in cling film and freeze for 1 hr to make slicing easier. Meanwhile, finely grate the zest from one lemon and squeeze the juice from both. Mix in a bowl with the dill, shallots, sugar and 1 tsp sea salt. Add the olive oil and whisk to amalgamate.
- Unwrap the salmon and set on a large chopping board. Cut wafer-thin slices on the diagonal, as you would smoked salmon. Arrange a layer of the salmon over a large shallow dish, then spoon over a little of the marinade - spreading it to evenly coat the fish. Continue slicing and layering, finishing with a layer of marinade. Cover with cling film, directly over the fish, and chill for at least 2 hrs or overnight.
- To serve, arrange the salmon slices over a platter and scatter over the capers and some salad leaves. Serve with thinly sliced brown bread or soda bread.

Tips:
- For the best results, use high-quality, fresh fish. Sushi-grade fish is ideal, but if it is not available, make sure the fish is very fresh and has been properly frozen and thawed.
- Use a sharp knife to thinly slice the fish. This will help to prevent the fish from tearing or becoming ragged.
- If you are making salmon carpaccio, chill the fish for at least 30 minutes before slicing. This will help to firm up the fish and make it easier to slice thinly.
- When making halibut tartare, chop the fish very finely. This will help to create a smooth, even texture.
- Season the fish lightly with salt and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as lemon juice, olive oil, or herbs, to taste.
- Serve the fish immediately after preparing it. This will help to ensure that the fish is at its best flavor and texture.
Conclusion:
Salmon carpaccio and halibut tartare are two delicious and elegant dishes that are perfect for a special occasion. They are both relatively easy to make, but they require careful attention to detail. By following the tips above, you can create these dishes perfectly and impress your guests.
