NOTES

1. Smoked salmon: Use cold smoked salmon, for example, Norwegian salmon, real Dutch salmon, or wild salmon.

2. Also tasty:

Asian salmon carpaccio. Make a dressing of soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, ginger, and garlic. Garnish the carpaccio with spring onions, sesame seeds, and tufts of wasabi.
Mediterranean salmon carpaccio. Garnish the carpaccio with finely chopped tomatoes, capers, and red onion. Make a dressing of olive oil, lemon juice, and fresh basil and parsley.

3. Mustard: Instead of coarse mustard, you can also use yellow or Dijon mustard.

4. Is it safe to eat salmon carpaccio? Raw fish can always contain bacteria that can make you sick. Therefore, getting whole fresh salmon from a company you trust is always important. Salmon carpaccio is not safe for pregnant women, children, and the frail elderly.

5. Storage
You cannot store salmon carpaccio with honey mustard dressing once you have made it.

However, you can divide the salmon, salad, and dressing among the plates in advance (e.g., in the morning, not much earlier). Store covered under plastic wrap in the refrigerator. Mix the ingredients for the dressing and let it stand covered at room temperature. This way, just before serving, you only have to pour the sauce over the salmon carpaccio.
