Carpaccio recipes are typically flattened or thinly sliced pieces of raw beef. However, you can also make a carpaccio with different types of raw fish.
Carpaccio was named after a Venetian artist who lived until 1525 in Italy.
And this appetizer was given Carpaccio's name when it was first eaten at Harry's Bar in Italy decades ago because it was reminiscent of Carpaccio's paintings.
A carpaccio usually comes with raw meat or fish, lemon juice, olive oil, seasoning, and Italian parmesan cheese.
However, as usual there are many variations to this Italian appetizer and you can even have a carpaccio that is slightly cooked if you so desire.

This recipe is a very simple rustic type of carpaccio recipe and it's very easy to make - as well as delicious.
You can serve this carpaccio recipe with a rustic and crusty sourdough bread made from ancient wheat grains.
Freezing meat makes it a bit easier to thinly slice the meat.
And freezing meat for a certain period of time can help to eliminate the threat of certain parasites - if this is a concern for you.
Tagliata di manzo is a warmed carpaccio recipe.
And you can either warm the whole dish in the oven or use slices of slightly seared meat to make your Tagliata di manzo.
You can also grill a steak to rare or medium rare and then thinly slice the meat to make a warmed carpaccio.
You can use a New York steak, Beef Tenderloin, or even Roast Beef - whatever tender cut of meat you have on hand.
If your not into eating meat, you can make a fish carpaccio instead.
However, be sure to use the best quality fish for your fish carpaccio like a sushi or sashimi grade fish - especially when buying salmon.
The fish should smell really fresh and you should use it right away to make fish carpaccio.

If you can't find Sea Bream in your area, use Sea Bass instead or try another type of white fish.
Halibut or Mahi Mahi would be another great white fish choice for your raw fish carpaccio recipes.

I like the idea of one big piece of flattened raw fish.
And instead of using tuna, you could also use wild caught salmon - which may be an easier fish to find in your area.
