Title: Smoked Salmon
Post by: Sandhead on October 26, 2004, 08:39:13 AM
How do you make that thinly sliced smoked salmon?
All the smoked salmon I have is of the filet variety, and its more chunky than that thinly sliced stuff I see at stores

Lox or Cold smoke is what you looking for. To do these type of smoke salmon, you first have to cure the fish with salt and sugar.. then follow by a cold smokeing process.  Its way better to send them out to cannary or smoke house to do it.   if you intrested, send them to St. Jeans Cannary, it cheap, i believe it only cost $2/lb (incomming weight), which they will cut into 1lb portion and Vacum packed. Or you can pay $3.75/lb (incomming weight) for pre sliced lox, which is a really nice gift as well... They sliced the fish and place them on foiled cardboard and VP. hope its help.

Don't worry, that chunky stuff is great with Sun Dried Tomatoes and Artichoke Hearts in a nice cream sauce served over warm pasta. MMMMMMMMM
