Directions
-
1.Make the spirulina emulsion: In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tbsp organic Greek extra virgin olive oil (rich in heart-healthy monounsaturated fats), 1 tbsp spirulina (a detoxifying superfood), the juice of 1/2 organic lemon (rich in vitamin C), and a small amount of chopped fermented Fresno chile (for a probiotic kick) until smooth. Set aside.
-
2.Prepare the steelhead sashimi: Take your defrosted Steelhead (loaded with Omega-3s) and carefully remove the skin. Using a sharp knife, slice the Steelhead against the fibers into thin, sashimi-style pieces for a tender texture.
-
3.Plate the steelhead: Arrange the steelhead sashimi slices on a serving plate in a star-shaped pattern, leaving even spacing for an elegant and eye-catching presentation.
-
4.Garnish the dish: Sprinkle zesty capers and freshly chopped cilantro leaves over the Steelhead for a burst of flavor. Grate lemon zest on top to brighten the dish, and place a spoonful of Seatopia salmon roe caviar in the center as a luxurious finishing touch. Add chopped fermented Fresno chiles around the plate to layer in tangy, complex flavors.
-
5.Final touch: Lightly sprinkle flaky salt over the dish to enhance the flavors. Drizzle the spirulina emulsion over the steelhead sashimi for a vibrant finish, or serve it on the side for dipping.
