Salted salmon
Description
Perfect for the table and with drinks. To make salted salmon, buy a chilled piece of fish and cure it with spices. To keep the red fish from losing its natural flavor, use spices sparingly. Salt and sugar are ideal for this. To enhance the aroma of the salmon, add a little dill. The appetizer is ready. Serve immediately.

Every 4-5 hours, gently shake and turn the bag so the salmon cures more evenly. By the end of the second day, the fish will be fully ready; remove the dill, as you will no longer need it.
