Fried Fucus

Garnish

Method

Salmon Preparation

  1. 1

    Cure the Salmon

    In a bowl, combine grated beetroot, sea salt, sugar, and black pepper. Rub the mixture thoroughly over the salmon fillet. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 24 hours.

  2. 2

    Rinse and Slice

    After curing, rinse the salmon under cold water to remove the cure. Pat dry with paper towels and slice thinly using a sharp knife.

Cucumber & Dill Bavaroise Preparation

  1. 3

    Prepare Gelatin

    Soak the gelatin sheets in cold water for about 5 minutes until softened. Drain.

  2. 4

    Blend Cucumber and Dill

    In a blender, combine chopped cucumber, fresh dill, lemon juice, and salt. Blend until smooth.

  3. 5

    Combine with Cream

    In a saucepan, heat the blended cucumber mixture. Add the softened gelatin, stirring until dissolved. Remove from heat and fold in the heavy cream. Pour into molds and refrigerate until set.

Fried Fucus Preparation

  1. 6

    Prepare the Batter

    In a bowl, mix flour with water to create a smooth batter. Dip the fucus seaweed in the batter.

  2. 7

    Fry the Fucus

    Heat oil in a deep pan. Once hot, carefully add the battered fucus and fry until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Assembly

  1. 8

    Plate the Dish

    On a plate, arrange the thin slices of cured salmon. Add dollops of cucumber and dill bavaroise, sprinkle with fried fucus, and garnish with sliced radish and hakurei turnip.
