Salmon Sashimi with Ginger Sauce
Salmon is topped with a bold ginger sauce with garlic, green onion, and citrus that is a bit sweet, savory and salty, cutting through the rich salmon flavor nicely. A drizzle of toasted sesame oil and sriracha and a sprinkling of green onions lift the final dish. This is basically a salmon tataki without the searing of the fish. To convert this into a true tataki, simply coat the salmon in toasted sesame seeds then sear in a hot pan briefly, making sure to leave the center as rare as possible. Then chill before slicing.

Ingredients
- 2 green onions whites trimmed and greens reserved and sliced thin
- 1 inch piece ginger
- 1 clove garlic
- 3 tablespoons low sodium gluten-free soy sauce with a pinch of monk fruit to taste or coconut aminos (full sodium soy will be too salty – if this is all you have – dilute the 2 tablespoons of soy sauce with a tablespoon of water)
- 1 tablespoon yuzu juice or 1 teaspoon lime juice
- 1/2 pound sushi grade salmon sliced 1/8 inch thin, or as thick as you like
- 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil

- Add the whites of the green onions, ginger, garlic, soy, and yuzu to a small blender and process until completely smooth. Set aside.
