Pesce Crudo with Sablefish

Pesce Crudo is the Italian version of ceviche, and it makes for the perfect summertime appetizer with minimal effort and no cooking.

This version uses our Skipper Otto sablefish, but you can substitute ling cod cheeks or any other white fish we carry. As our sablefish is flash frozen it is considered sushi/sashimi grade, so it can be served without cooking it.

This recipe is garnished with cherry tomatoes, shallots, fresh oregano, lump caviar, radishes and dried edible flowers but use whatever you have on hand or is easily found at the grocery store, farmer’s market or your own garden!
