Spicy Salmon ā¤ļøšš» A variation of this is my go to appetizer when hosting or when Iām in the mood for something fresh/light! By now you know that I love raw fish, but specially obsessed with raw salmon. I love making different variations of salmon crudo and play with different ingredients, and this one is insanely delicious!
