This cured salmon salad is deliciously fresh and light. The process of “cooking” the fish by bathing it in lime juice and sherry results in a melt in the mouth texture that marries beautifully with the Asian-style dressing and crisp salad leaves. Besides thoroughly developing the taste, it also results in a soft and tender texture you can’t achieve from normal cooking.
