How to prepare a salami tartar?

To prepare a salami tartar full of flavor, a key measure to take into account is its temperature. We advise you to let the sausage piece warm for a minimum of 30 minutes or up to 2 hours if it was previously in the refrigerator before starting the preparation.

Once this time has elapsed, remove the casing from the part you need and mince the meat with a sharp knife. To achieve the desired texture, the pieces should be fine and almost transparent.

Then, mix them in a deep bowl with chopped chives and a dressing of honey, olive oil and mustard. Let the mixture stand for a few minutes for the flavors to blend.

To serve, we suggest accompanying the tartar with toasts of different varieties of bread and a small bowl with the dressing used. An ideal recipe to appreciate the potential of Iberian salami.
