Instructions
- Place salmon in a plastic or glass container and rub both sides with the salt. Cover the container and chill in the refrigerator for 24 hours.
- Rinse salmon thoroughly and soak in a bowl of cold water for 30 minutes, changing the water once, after 15 minutes. Remove fish and pat dry with paper towels.
- Dice fish and place in a mixing bowl. Add tomato, onion and green onions; toss gently to combine. Note: If onion is not sweet, soak the diced onion in cold water for 10 minutes to remove bitterness.
- Mound salmon mixture onto each avocado half. Garnish with cilantro or chives and serve immediately. Add a crostini to the presentation, if desired.
*Large avocados are recommended for these recipes. A large avocado averages about 8 ounces. If using smaller or larger size avocados adjust the quantity accordingly.
