Lightly Salted Salmon (Quick)
Description
Lightly salted salmon at home is simple and quick to prepare. Another advantage: if you make the fish at home, you can always control the level of salting yourself and add the spices you like. The fish needs 2 days to cure, but if you need it ready in 5–6 hours, slice it thinly before salting and follow the rest of the recipe. Serve with herbs and sauce.
