Composition:

Fresh, high-quality salmon sliced and dressed with a mustard dressing. The salmon is lightly seasoned, then layered so the dressing can coat each piece without overpowering it. A bit of citrus with the lemon zest confit, a refreshing touch with the pomelo, and a chilled serving temperature keep the whole dish bright and refreshing.

On the palate:

Clean, silky, and full of flavour. The richness of the salmon melts into the tangy, umami dressing, while the citrus lifts everything up. You get that balance of creamy, salty, sharp, and slightly sweet – all light, fresh, and easy to enjoy from the first bite to the last.

What makes it special?

It brings together two things I genuinely love: beautiful salmon and the Asian flavours I always look for when I travel. This recipe is basically the way I’ve been cooking for years – simple, honest, and full of ingredients that feel both comforting and exciting at the same time.

Best paired with:

A chilled glass of dry white grape.
