Instructions
Ensure you have a fresh, sashimi-grade salmon fillet. It's crucial for the safety and quality of the dish.

Drizzle the fresh lemon juice evenly over the salmon slices to add a refreshing taste, ensuring the flavors meld harmoniously.
Sprinkle sesame seeds over the salmon slices for an added crunch and nutty flavor.
Finely chop the fresh chives and sprinkle them over the salmon for a touch of color and mild onion flavor.
Serve the salmon with a side of wasabi paste and pickled ginger. Accompany with small dipping dishes of soy sauce or tamari for a gluten-free option.
Enjoy the dish immediately for the best taste and texture.
