Fluke Crudo

Fresh fish really shines in this simple preparation.

When you have really fresh fish, make crudo, a dish of uncooked fish or seafood simply seasoned with oil and citrus juice or a vinaigrette. That's what Martha did when her friend chef David Pasternack, a renowned seafood expert, visited her with very fresh fluke, and the dish couldn't be simpler to make. All you need is top quality fish and good olive oil, a little citrus juice (Pasternack used lime with the fluke), salt and pepper, some sliced radish, and the crudo is ready to serve. 

Don't overdo the lime juice for this crudo; too much will dilute the flavor of the fish. Squeeze it directly onto the fish, rather than on the plate.
