Gravlax

How thin should the slices of Gravlax be?

How do I know if I've cured the Gravlax enough?

What kind of salmon should I use for Gravlax?

What should I do with the liquid that comes out during curing?

Can I use other types of fish to make Gravlax?

Homemade Gravlax is so much cheaper and it tastes BETTER than store bought because store bought is usually too salty and you can never get that real fresh dill flavour. It's so crazy easy to make, this is going to blow your mind! The key to nailing gravlax is: cure time, salt type and sugar vs salt ratio.

Since the Middle Ages, fisherman have prepared gravlax, or “buried fish”. Hardly a more impressive and beautiful holiday make-in-advance plate exists for a large gathering of family and friends than a lovely home-cured side of salmon that may be served as an appetizer before the celebratory feast or as part of a breakfast buffet. Plan ahead and then serve to awed guests when they see the ombre tint of this Nordic inspired preparation—shhhh, no one needs to know that the intense magenta color comes from beets. The beets provide gorgeous color but do not flavor the salmon. While dill is the traditional Swedish accompaniment for gravlax, the chives in this recipe are a nice twist—if made in the summer time, use the pretty purple chive flowers rather than a bed of evergreens to garnish the serving board.

Salmon Gravlax

While this type of cured salmon, called gravlax, is usually made with skin-on salmon, this recipe removes the skin and rubs the curing mixture on both sides for better flavor penetration. Ask your fishmonger for a center-cut piece of salmon that's consistently 1 1/2 inches thick for the best results. Green peppercorns are often sold in a brine, but you'll want to seek out dried ones for this recipe.
