Cured Salmon Ingredients

Method

Curing and Serving Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cure

    In a bowl, mix the coarse sea salt, sugar, lemon zest, and crushed black peppercorns.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Salmon

    Place the salmon fillet skin-side down in a shallow dish. Rub the cure mixture evenly over the flesh of the salmon.

  3. 3

    Add Dill

    Lay the fresh dill over the salmon fillet, covering it completely.

  4. 4

    Wrap and Cure

    Wrap the salmon tightly in plastic wrap. Place a weight on top (like a heavy plate) and refrigerate for 48-72 hours to cure.

  5. 5

    Slice and Serve

    Once cured, unwrap the salmon and slice it thinly. Serve on potato chips with a dollop of crème fraîche, topped with white sturgeon caviar and capers.
