Gravlax

Gravlax is a traditional Nordic dish made with cured salmon, typically served as an appetizer or on open-faced sandwiches.

Ingredients - Serves 8

In a small bowl, mix together the salt, sugar, chopped dill, black pepper, mustard, and lemon zest.
Place the salmon fillet skin-side down on a large piece of plastic wrap.
Spread the salt and dill mixture evenly over the flesh side of the salmon.
Wrap the salmon tightly in the plastic wrap, making sure it is completely covered.
Place the wrapped salmon in a shallow dish and refrigerate for 48 hours, flipping the salmon halfway through.
After 48 hours, remove the salmon from the plastic wrap and scrape off the excess salt and dill mixture.
Thinly slice the gravlax and serve chilled as an appetizer or on open-faced sandwiches.
