SALT-ROASTED SALMON TOSTADA

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 500 degrees F.
• In a frying pan, heat 2 inches of oil to 360 degrees F.
• Fry tortillas, 1 at a time, until crispy, about 2 minutes(do not fold tortilla). Drain on paper towels and set aside.
• In a baking dish that will hold the salmon in 1 layer, spread half of the salt over the bottom. Arrange salmon on top of salt then cover with remaining salt. Bake for about 8 minutes. The salmon should be pink and moist in the center; insert a knife tip through salt and into a piece of fish to check. Remove salmon from oven and allow to cool slightly. Lift off and remove salt crust with a spatula. Break up salmon with your fingers and place in a bowl; drizzle with a little bit of the vinaigrette. If desired, add cilantro leaves.
• Place a crisp tortilla on each plate. Top with a ladleful of black beans then with a layer of salmon. In a bowl, lightly dress the arugula with remaining cumin vinaigrette. Add sesame seeds and toss well. Place a small mound of greens on each tostada and sprinkle with goat cheese. Place a lime wedge alongside and drizzle with lime-cumin creme fraiche. Serve.
• Combine vinegar, lime juice, cumin, salt, and pepper in a bowl, and mix well. Whisk in the oil until emulsified. Set aside until ready to use.;
• In a large pot, bring black beans to boil in water to cover by 2 inches. Add half the onion, the celery and the bay leaf. Reduce heat and simmer until beans are tender, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Strain and reserve liquid.
