This salmon ceviche is simple to prepare but with complex flavors. I like using grey salt to marinate the fish because it maintains beautiful texture even after marinating. Some fresh herbs, sumac, chocolatey urfa chili and diced lemon make this such a refreshing dish.

Recipe Notes
Another great addition to the ceviche would be half of a fennel bulb shaved thinly as a bed for the ceviche or diced ¼” and folded through the ceviche before marinating.
Cancale instead of grey salt would be a great substitution if you include the fresh fennel.
You could also use fleur de sel in place of the grey salt.
