Muktuk

Muktuk is a traditional Inuit dish featuring raw whale skin and blubber that is rich in omega-3 fatty acids and offers a unique taste of the Arctic. This Paleo-friendly version uses tender, marinated fish to provide a similar texture while remaining accessible and delicious.

Ingredients

• Fresh salmon fillet - 200 grams
• Fresh mackerel fillet - 200 grams
• Sea salt - 1 teaspoon

Steps

1. In a bowl, combine the diced cucumber, red onion, radishes, dill, olive oil, and a pinch of sea salt to create a refreshing salad.
2. Cut the salmon and mackerel fillets into bite-sized cubes and place them in a separate bowl.
3. Drizzle the lemon juice over the fish, sprinkle with sea salt and black pepper, then gently toss to coat the pieces evenly.
