Which season is this recipe best for?

Salmon Crudo with Raspberries is a year-round treat. If you don’t have raspberries, you may choose citrus such as tangerine, or oranges.

If you opt for raspberries, choose raspberries that are ripe, juicy, and bursting with flavor, perfectly complementing the delicate taste of fresh salmon.

Where can I buy the ingredients for this recipe?

For the freshest and highest quality ingredients, here’s where you should look:

Salmon should be purchased from a reputable seafood market or grocery store that specializes in high-quality seafood.

Ensure the salmon is fresh and has been properly handled to ensure safety when consuming raw.

Raspberries are best bought from local farmers’ markets or grocery stores during their peak season.

Organic raspberries are a great choice if available, as they tend to have better flavor and fewer pesticides.

Lemon and lime are widely available at grocery stores year-round. Choose firm, unblemished fruits for the best flavor.

Opt for high-quality extra virgin olive oil, which can be found at most grocery stores. A good olive oil adds depth to the flavor of the dish.

Edible flowers can be purchased from specialty grocery stores, or farmers’ markets.

Can I substitute the ingredients in this recipe?

Can I Substitute Any of the Ingredients?

Certainly!

If salmon is unavailable, other sushi-grade fish like tuna can be used.

Ensure any fish used is fresh and suitable for raw consumption.

If raspberries are out of season, other berries such as strawberries, blackberries, or blueberries can be substituted.

Keep in mind that the flavor profile will change slightly.

If you prefer, you can use just lemon or just lime for the acidity. Both options will work, but they will impart different flavor notes.

For decoration, you can use microgreens or finely chopped herbs if edible flowers are not available.

These alternatives will add a fresh and visually appealing touch to the dish.

While olive oil is preferred, other high-quality oils such as avocado oil can be used for a different flavor profile.

Can I make this recipe part of a menu?

Absolutely! Salmon Crudo with Raspberries makes a sophisticated appetizer or a light main course. Here’s how you can incorporate it into a menu:

It can be served as a refreshing appetizer to a multi-course meal, pairing well with Mediterranean Oven Baked Fries.

For a lighter main course, you might serve Shrimp Quiche, or consider Poached Salmon in White Wine with Mediterranean Baby Baked Potatoes.

As an elegant addition to a brunch menu, it pairs nicely with items like Apricot Shrimp Carpaccio or Shrimp Croquettes.

For a dinner party, presenting the crudo on a beautifully arranged platter as a centerpiece is a great idea.

It complements well with other small plates or a seafood-themed menu. Seafood lovers, browse more recipes! 🙂

For a dessert, go with my Strawberry Blackberry Pavlova or Mango Pavlova. Those desserts are simply irresistible.

Which drinks pair well with this recipe?

The bright and fresh flavors of Salmon Crudo with Raspberries pair well with a variety of beverages:

A crisp, dry white wine such as Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio enhances the delicate flavors of the dish without overpowering it.

I love to serve Crudo with a bottle of Champagne or Espumante, or sparkling wine adds a celebratory touch and complements the acidity and freshness of the crudo.

A chilled rosé offers a refreshing balance and adds a hint of fruitiness that pairs well with the raspberries.

Light and citrus-forward cocktails, such as a gin and tonic or a mojito, can also be delightful pairings.

For non-alcoholic options, sparkling water with a splash of lemon or lime, or a lightly flavored iced tea, can be refreshing alternatives.

How long can I store this recipe leftovers?

Salmon Crudo with Raspberries is best enjoyed fresh, as raw fish can spoil quickly.

Store any remaining crudo in an airtight container in the refrigerator and consume it within a day for optimal freshness and safety.

Freezing raw salmon is not recommended once it has been prepared, as it can significantly compromise the texture and quality.

If you anticipate leftovers, consider preparing the salmon and raspberries separately and assembling the dish just before serving to maintain the best quality.

Recipe tips & tricks

Recipe Tips & Tricks

  • To ensure the best results, use a sharp knife to slice the salmon thinly and evenly. This will ensure a clean cut and enhance the presentation of the crudo.
  • Gently rinse raspberries just before using them to avoid excess moisture. Pat them dry with a paper towel to prevent any dilution of the dish’s flavors.
  • Adjust the lemon and lime juice to taste. The acidity should complement but not overpower the natural flavors of the salmon and raspberries.
  • Assemble the crudo just before serving to ensure the freshest taste and best presentation. Decorate with edible flowers or microgreens for an elegant touch.

With its fresh flavors, vibrant colors, and elegant presentation, this recipe is sure to impress both visually and gastronomically.
