Method

Remove and discard any brown flesh on the salmon lying just below the skin. With a large heavy chopping knife, chop the flesh finely.
Mix with the rest of the ingredients and season with salt and freshly ground white pepper. Add a little more lemon juice to taste if necessary. Serve dotted with some pickled cucumber and with toasted rye or sourdough bread.
