California Farm Dill Smoked Salmon Fillet California Farm Dill Smoked Salmon Fillet
Cold smoking takes longer and penetrates more flavors in salmon than regular smoking. The traditional Scandinavian ingredients to cure salmon into gravlax are salt, sugar, dill, pepper, and lemon juice, pressed for a week into the fish under a plank and a stone. See my family gravlax recipe in cookpad.Using dill, lemon grass, peppermint and rosemary on oak firewood is our California way of smoke curing these traditional Sandinavian flavors into smoked salmon. It is quicker than cold pressing, gives a different flavor and texture, and the salmon tastes amazing.#GoldenApron23 Hobby Horseman -
