‘Sashimi’, sliced raw Fish, are still hard to find where I live, but I have a good access to Salmon that is fresh enough to eat raw. You don’t like raw salmon? How about to cure the raw salmon in lemon juice based marinade? This refreshing dish is perfect for lunch or dinner on a hot summer day.

300g Fresh Salmon Fillet *skinless, bones removed

- To make marinade, combine all ingredients.
- Cut fresh Salmon fillet into smaller blocks and slice 3-4mm thick.

Thanks for this sashimi recipe. I’ve never seen it prepared quite like this before (and it looks easy), so I’m excited to try it. I find that most are apprehensive about making sashimi at home for the first time with it typically being raw, plus the learning curve on the knife skills slicing and cutting the salmon sashimi. Anyway…thanks for sharing!

Thank you for your comment, Bobby. When I was very young, I couldn’t eat raw fish. However, when they are marinated, I enjoyed it. Not only salmon, but other fresh fish can be cured in vinegar-base marinade, and they could last longer than raw, I suppose.
