Time 30m

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

12 ounces sushi-grade salmon or ahi tuna, cut into four 3-ounce pieces
1/2 teaspoon wasabi paste
1 tablespoon seasoned rice vinegar
1/2 teaspoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon Greek yogurt
1 tablespoon heavy cream
Shiso for garnish
cilantro sprigs or chervil sprigs for garnish
1 cup finely diced cucumber
2 tablespoons seasoned rice vinegar
1 tablespoon sesame oil

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.

I tried this recipe and it was just okay. The salmon carpaccio was a bit bland and the wasabi sauce was too spicy for my taste. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This recipe is a bit too complicated for me. I'm not a very experienced cook and I found the instructions to be a bit confusing. The salmon carpaccio turned out okay, but it wasn't as good as I had hoped.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover salmon. I had some cooked salmon in the fridge and I didn't know what to do with it. This recipe was the perfect solution! The salmon carpaccio was delicious and I will definitely be making it again.
