- 32 tablespoons ají amarillo paste
- 41 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
- 51 clove garlic, very finely grated
- 61 tablespoon sesame oil

- 101 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
- 11Microgreens and thinly sliced cucumber for garnish
Instructions
- 1
Slice the salmon against the grain into very thin (⅛-inch) rectangular slices using a sharp knife. Arrange in a single, flat layer on chilled plates — tiradito is like ceviche but sliced and presented like Japanese sashimi.

Whisk together lime juice, ají amarillo paste, ginger, garlic, sesame oil, soy sauce, and sugar until the sugar dissolves. Taste — the sauce should be bright, spicy, savory, and slightly sweet in a complex balance.

Spoon the leche de tigre sauce directly over the salmon slices, coating each piece completely. The acid begins curing the fish immediately. Top with very thin red onion, sesame seeds, cucumber, and microgreens. Serve within 5 minutes for the ideal texture.
