SALT AND SUGAR CURED SALMON GRAVLAX APPETIZER
Steps:
- Fillet the salmon or have the fishmonger fillet it for you; the fish need not be scaled.
- Lay both halves, skin side down, on a plate.
- Sprinkle with the salt, sugar, and pepper, spread the dill over the salmon and splash on your liquor of choice.
- Sandwich the fillets together, tail to tail, then wrap tightly in plastic wrap.
- Cover the salmon "sandwich" with another plate and something that weighs about a pound -- an unopened can of coffee or beans, for example. Refrigerate.
- Open the package every 12 to 24 hours and baste, inside and out, with the accumulated juices.
- On the second or third day, when the flesh has lost its translucence, slice thinly as you would smoked salmon -- on the bias and without the skin -- and serve with rye bread, pumpernickel or bialys and lemon wedges.

GRAVLAX WITH MUSTARD SAUCE
Steps:
- Cut the salmon in half crosswise and place half the fish skin side down in a deep dish. Wash and shake dry the dill and place it on the fish. Combine the salt, sugar, crushed peppercorns, and fennel seeds in a small bowl and sprinkle it evenly over the piece of fish. Place the other half of salmon over the dill, skin side up. Cover the dish with aluminum foil. Place a smaller pan on top of the foil and weight it with some heavy cans. Refrigerate the salmon for at least 2 and up to 3 days, turning it every 12 hours and basting it with the liquid that collects.
- Lay each piece of salmon flat on a cutting board, remove the bunch of dill, and sprinkle the top with chopped dill. With a long thin slicing knife, slice the salmon in long thin slices as you would for smoked salmon. Serve with dark pumpernickel bread and mustard sauce. You can also serve with chopped red onion and capers, if desired.
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon ground dry mustard
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 3 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
- Combine the mustards, sugar, and vinegar in a small bowl. Slowly whisk in the oil and stir in the chopped dill. Serve with the gravlax.
- Yield: 3/4 cup

GRAVLAX, SALT-CURED SALMON
With a sharp knife carefully slice on the diagonal to get slices as thin as you can without them falling to bits, leaving the skin. With practice you can become pretty good at this. Serve on bagels with cream cheese, a thin slice of onion and capers, and a squeeze of lemon. Or on toast, or crackers. The traditional Swedish way is on pumpernickel bread with equal parts dijon mustard, sugar, white vinegar emulsified with 3 parts regular olive or canola oil.

Steps:
- It's best to buy two sides of the same salmon, or at least two opposites sides that are fairly close in size.
- The above ingredients are for 1lb of salmon, so adjust (presumably) upwards as required.
- Defrost salmon and pat dry with paper towels.
- Remove any bones you detect with clean pliers.
- Lay flat on a baking sheet covered with plastic wrap, skin side down, so that you can easily flip one side onto the other, back the way they would be if it were a whole fish.
- Take the salt, sugar and pepper and mix thoroughly in a bowl.
- Evenly apply the salt/sugar/pepper mix onto the salmon flesh, being careful to cover every part, with a little less for the thin ends, and more on the thicker parts.
- Sprinkle the dill over the salted fish.
- Flip one side over onto the other making a sandwich.
- Place one end of a long strip of muslin underneath the fish.
- Roll the fish over toward you, and tug a little on the muslin to tighten. Repeat until out of muslin.
- You don't need to tug very hard, each time you do it the pressure increases more and more.
- Place the fish on the baking sheet to catch drips and place in the fridge.
- Turn once or twice per day for three days.
- Unwrap, and rinse off the cure mix and dill quick as you can so the salmon doesn't soak too much. Carefully pat dry with paper towels. This will keep for a week or freeze for 3 months.
- With a sharp knife carefully slice on the diagonal to get slices as thin as you can without them falling to bits, leaving the skin.
- With practice you can become pretty good at this.
