Gravlax-Style Salmon Tartare with Dill Oil
For this variation on classic salmon gravlax, Anya von Bremzen cuts the fish into small cubes before adding salt and sugar, so it cures quickly—overnight instead of over several days. She serves the tartare as an hors d’oeuvre with blini (it’s also great with crackers) or as a first course by itself, with pretty, green dill oil and smoked salt. Slideshow: Salmon Recipes

Recipe Summary
Ingredients
Directions
Make Ahead
The dill oil can be refrigerated overnight. Serve at room temperature.
Suggested Pairing
To serve with this tartare, Anya von Bremzen makes lemon-infused vodka by simply steeping the peel (minus the pith) of 1 lemon in vodka for a day. The tartare would also go well with a similarly bright, citrusy white wine like an Albariño.
