A small but beautiful Christmas amuse bouche salmon in arugula oil. In addition, delicious seasonings like wasabi and sesame seeds. This is a real winner!
A small snack to tickle the taste buds, that is what an amuse bouche should be. And this appetizer with salmon, arugula oil and wasabi fully complies with that. And it looks super nice. You can serve it on an amuse spoon, which is convenient because then you eat it in one bite, but when I wanted to take them it came out ... I don't have amuse spoons. Yes my husband laughs at me probably because my kitchen cabinets are full of all kinds of dishes, but it's true this time: I have none. That is just another good reason to go shopping and buy them anyway ;-). So I decided to add a piece of toast, which you can use as a spoon and that worked out great. Indeed I was very fond of it and maybe I'm not going to buy the spoons and serve it this way anyhow.
Because...
- you make use of short shelf life products, make this dish just for you eat it and don't pre prepare.
- you love spicy food, just like me, use the pure wasabi paste. But if there are kids enjoying dinner, you can also mix it one on one (or at taste) with mayonnaise.
- the arugula oil is too thick, you just use a little extra oil to thin. First put in the arugula on the plate and then the salmon, so the flavors combine better.
