The citrus juices provide a hefty dose of vitamin C, while the fresh herbs and vegetables contribute fiber, vitamins, and antioxidants.

Where can I buy the required ingredients?

To ensure the quality, I recommend buying your ingredients from local farmers’ markets or specialty grocers.

Look for sustainably sourced salmon fillets, organic citrus fruits, and locally grown herbs and vegetables at local farmer markets.

You can explore online retailers that specialize in premium ingredients for a great culinary experience.

Can I substitute any of the ingredients?

While I encourage you to follow my recipe, you can always customize it to suit your preferences and dietary needs.

Feel free to experiment with different varieties of citrus fruits, such as lime or grapefruit, in place of oranges.

You can also swap out the yellow pepper for red or orange bell peppers to add extra sweetness and color.

For a milder heat, consider substituting the red chili pepper with a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes.

Which drinks pair well with this dish?

You can complement the vibrant flavors of Mediterranean Salmon Ceviche with refreshing beverages that enhance its citrusy zest and delicate salmon.

Crisp white wines such as Sauvignon Blanc or Albariño provide a perfect balance of acidity and fruitiness, while sparkling rosé adds a touch of elegance to any occasion.

For a non-alcoholic option, try pairing it with a refreshing cucumber mint mocktail or citrus-infused sparkling water for a refreshing burst.

How long can I store the leftovers?

While Mediterranean Salmon Ceviche is best enjoyed fresh, leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.

Please, keep in mind that the texture of the salmon may change slightly as it continues to marinate in the citrus juices.

For optimal freshness and flavor, consume leftovers within the first day of preparation.

Recipe tips & tricks:

• To achieve the perfect balance of flavors, allow the salmon to marinate in the orange juice and olive oil mixture for at least 20-30 minutes before adding the remaining ingredients.
• Don’t forget to season generously with salt and pepper to enhance the natural flavors of the ingredients and bring out their full potential.
• For a visually stunning presentation, garnish the ceviche with additional chopped herbs and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil just before serving.

With its bold flavors and refreshing qualities, this Mediterranean Salmon Ceviche recipe is sure to become a staple in your kitchen.
