Salmon Jerky Recipes

DYLAN'S SALMON JERKY

Steps:

• Mix soy sauce, brown sugar, rock salt, and black pepper together in a saucepan; bring to a boil and cook until sugar and salt are dissolved, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove saucepan from heat and cool marinade.
• Cut salmon into strips, with or without the skin. Pour marinade into a shallow bowl and lay salmon strips into the shallow bowl. Refrigerate for 45 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 185 degrees F (85 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top. Lay salmon strips on the wire rack, discarding extra marinade.
• Place the sheet of salmon in the oven until dehydrated, about 8 hours.

SPICY SALMON JERKY

Steps:

• Slice salmon fillets into 4 equal sections, width-wise. Rotate each section 90 degrees and slice lengthwise, about 1/4-inch thick. Remove pin bones with needle-nose pliers. Don't slice bony sections near the center of the fillet.
• Stir soy sauce, molasses, sugar, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, black pepper, liquid smoke, and hot sauce together in a glass or plastic bowl until marinade is well-mixed. Place salmon in the marinade, ensuring every strip is covered. Cover bowl and refrigerate for 4 hours.
• Remove salmon from bowl and drain liquid using a colander. Pat the salmon dry using paper towels.
• Place each salmon strip in a dehydrator and run the dehydrator according to manufacturer's instructions until desired doneness is reached, about 6 hours. Check every few hours for doneness.
