Peel the pearl onions and place them in a saucepan over low heat, covered with a bit of olive oil. Let them cook until softened.
Once the onions are soft, carefully drain them and set them aside for later. In the same warm oil, place the salmon cut into cubes (skin and bones removed), along with the lemon peel, dill, and salt. Let the salmon sit in the oil until it cools down.
Crush the walnuts in a mortar until finely ground.
Coat the salmon cubes in the ground walnuts. Alternate the salmon cubes with the pearl onions and pieces of white asparagus on the skewers.
Mix all the sauce ingredients together: chopped pickles, capers, onion, hard-boiled egg, mayonnaise, and parsley.
The longer the salmon stays in the marinade, the more flavorful it will be.
Ensure the salmon cubes are evenly coated with the ground walnuts for a consistent texture.
Serve the skewers warm for the best taste and presentation.

What can I serve alongside these skewers?
These skewers pair well with a fresh green salad or roasted vegetables.
Can I prepare the sauce ahead of time?
