Market Fish Crudo is a fresh seafood dish typically made with raw fish, seasoned simply to highlight the natural flavors of the fish. Often served as an appetizer, crudo is akin to sashimi but may include a variety of additional flavorings like citrus juices, olive oil, herbs, and spices to enhance its freshness.
Crudo originates from Italy, where it translates to 'raw.' The concept has been adapted in different cuisines, especially in Mediterranean regions, as well as in contemporary American gastronomy, where chefs emphasize the use of fresh, seasonal fish.
