SMOKED SABLE CARPACCIO by Blue Hill Bay
Approximate Yield: 4 Servings
DESCRIPTION
This recipe is prepared with Acme’s one of a kind smoked sable, also known as Alaskan black cod. Our Sable comes seasoned with Hungarian paprika. For this sable carpaccio dish, the paprika is enhanced with a unique wasabi spiced cream sauce that creates an appetizer that provides an easy option for any time of day, any day of the week. The addition of orange slices, lime juice, and manzanilla olives round out the flavors to make this a sweet and sour, salty and savory dish that will awaken your mouth to a world of smoked fish flavor. Feel free to substitute nova smoked salmon for sable in this dish. All of the smoked salmon superfans out there will find equally delicious results with this substitution.
