Salmon Tartare

---

I'm posting this recipe with our usual metric weights and measures, with the us equivalents in brackets. I snagged it today from a newspaper, but i've adapted it. With any raw or cold-smoked salmon as the lure you could get me to commit ... Well, you name the sin!! I adore it. It's very expensive in south africa, as the best quality is flown in on ice. I buy packets of the thin cold-smoked salmon secretly, to have for breakfast on crispbread. This recipe can be served as a starter for 2, or scrooge-like in tiny potions on melba toast as snacks, so servings" given below takes this into account."
