Method

Preparation of Fish

1

Slice the Fish

Carefully fillet the striped jack and slice it into thin, even pieces. Arrange the slices on a serving plate.

Making Brown Butter

2

Prepare Brown Butter

In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Continue cooking, swirling the pan occasionally, until the butter turns golden brown and has a nutty aroma. This usually takes about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.

Preparing Dates Vinaigrette

3

Blend the Vinaigrette

In a blender, combine the pitted Medjool dates, extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth, adjusting seasoning to taste. If too thick, add a splash of water to reach desired consistency.

Assembling the Dish

4

Plate the Crudo

Drizzle the brown butter over the sliced striped jack evenly. Then, spoon the dates vinaigrette over the fish.

5

Garnish the Dish

Top with microgreens and edible flowers for a fresh and vibrant presentation.
