Salted Salmon and Tomato Salad With Onions (Aka Lomi Lomi Salmon image

This is a traditional modern Hawaiian dish. It is perfect for those dog days of summer when you want a cool salad. ***NOTE*** Salted Salmon is also known as cured salmon. If it's not available at our supermarket, there is a recipe here Recipe #136947 that I have never tried, but looks just right! By the way, "lomi-lomi" meand massage-massage in Hawaiian, and that's what you do to make this salad.

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups salted salmon, cut into tiny cubes
6 large tomatoes, diced
1 large maui onions or 1 large other sweet onion, diced
1/2 cup green onion, chopped, using only greens
1 teaspoon hawaiian salt or 1 teaspoon sea salt
1 cup ice, crushed

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, mix together salmon, tomatoes, onions and salt.
  • Refrigerate until ready to serve. Right before serving, add crushed ice.
  • ***NOTE*** Please taste your salted salmon before making this recipe. If it's too salty, you have to soak it over night in cold water. If it's not salty enough, add more salt. Also, some people (like my father) like to add some spice to this, so, you could add some Hawaiian red chili peppers, or red pepper flakes to kick it up a bit.
