Carefree Carpacio
Though Nigella Lawson's Salmon with Ginger, Soy and Rice Vinegar from Nigella Bites does not mention that this dish is essentially a carpacio, it is. She regards it as a starter to a dinner for 8, but I ate it for lunch! ;) It's just a nice, simple dish with a delicious flavour combination from the short ingredients list of soy, rice vinegar, ginger and sesame oil plus a scattering of scallions. I decided to use sashimi grade salmon as I just don't feel comfortable "cooking" less than prime fish with an acid. As good as this dish is, I did find that it became too salty if left in the sauce after the vinegar has "cooked" the salmon so in a way, this was much tastier used almost like a dipping sauce to sashimi. For fun, I broiled up the leftover pieces in the sauce which turned out quite good. I was not able to eat all of it in one sitting so I figured cooking it would prevent me from giving myself a good dose of food poisoning as surely I would somehow figure out a way to do that. ;P
