Smoked salmon salad is a refined combination of freshness and depth of flavor. Japanese cuisine values simplicity and harmony, which is vividly reflected in this dish. The salad leaves provide lightness, while the smoked salmon offers a rich aroma of the sea depths. Thin red onion adds a spicy note, and a delicate sauce made from balsamic vinegar, honey, and lemon juice creates a subtle balance of sweetness and acidity. This salad is perfect as a light dinner or festive appetizer; its elegant taste pairs wonderfully with white wine or green tea. Inspired by Japanese gastronomy, it brings sophistication to the table while highlighting the natural hues of the ingredients. The dish requires no complex cooking but impresses with its refined taste and noble appearance on the table.
