Salmon with Thai Cucumber Relish

by:




It has been said again and again, but freshness really is the key to the flavor and texture of fish. Buy from a market where the inventory turns over every three days or even faster. The flesh should look bright and glistening. It should be firm and elastic to the touch, and it should smell like fresh seawater, not like fish. Whole fish should have red, moist gills and reflective skin.
