Most places will carry some type of salmon to purchase, but sadly it's usually farmed salmon. 

Farmed salmon is quite a step down. 

It will not have the same taste or health benefits of wild caught salmon for your salmon tartare recipes. 

You can usually tell by the color if it is wild or farmed.  Wild caught salmon usually has a more vibrant orange color than farmed salmon (this fish also tends to be dyed). 

BTW, Atlantic salmon is almost always farmed these days.

Ingredients:

• 1 Fillet Sushi Grade Wild Caught Salmon (rough chopped)
• 1/2 Spring Onion or Green Onion (chopped)
• 1/2 tsp. Organic Freshly Grated Horseradish
  
• Dash of 100% Grass Fed Raw Cream
• Squeeze of Organic Lime Juice

Garnishes:

• 1 Tbsp. Organic Pureed Lemon
• 1 Poached Gull's Egg or Quail's Egg
  
• Dollop Caviar or Fish Roe
  
• Gold Leaf

I have no idea how to make pureed lemon, but lemon curd could be another option for this salmon tartare recipe.

Instructions:

1. Add ingredients into a bowl and mix to combine.  Adjust the salmon tartare recipe as needed.
2. Fill a cocktail glass with crushed ice and add the lemon puree.  Then add large spoonfuls of tartare.
3. Put the poached egg on top of the tartare and add the caviar on top of the egg.  Then add flecks of gold leaf.  Serve immediately!
