Instructions
On a cutting board, stack the salmon several slices high and cut into ¼-inch cubes. The roughly chop the cubes until they are about 1/8-inch pieces, but not puréed. Some variable texture is good. In a medium nonreactive mixing bowl, gently stir together the salmon, with all the remaining ingredients, except the cucumber and baguette slices.Line the bottom of a serving tray with the cucumber slices laid out in concentric circles. Mound the tartare over the slices, cover, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld and the tartare to chill.
Serve them on top of the baguette slices, with a bit of cucumber and additional horseradish on the side as optional add-ons.
Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc
Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Sauvignon Blanc are my top picks for Salmon. To decide on white or red, you should consider your seasoning and sauces. Chardonnay is a great friend to buttery, creamy dishes, while sauvignon blanc can complement herb or citrus-centric dishes. A light-bodied, low-tannin red such as the pinot noir goes great with broiled or grilled salmon. The Frank Family Vineyards Lewis Vineyard Reserve Chardonnay with a 5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 62 dollars per bottle.
