Ingredients:
- every time i thought of making gravlax at home, i nixed the idea because i couldn tsp imagine trying to stuff a whole salmon into my refrigerator. my mother says to me 1 day, why don tsp you just try a lb, kathleen you re not feeding an army.
- i guess you just don tsp start thinking clearly until you have four children. never occurred to me. off to the butcher i went to buy two pieces of salmon the same size and shape to equal 1 lb. the perfect amount for a family brunch with just enough leftover for a delicious lunch for 1 or two the next day. buying two pieces the same shape is important so when you press them together, flesh to flesh (think salmon sandwich) all surfaces are covered with the marinade.
- of course you ll be using freshly cracked black pepper, which can be tricky to measure just out of the peppermill. grind on to a piece of paper and then pour into measuring spoon over the zipper-lock bag you ll be marinating the salmon. if you spill, it will end up in the right place.
Directions:
- Into a zipper-lock bag, pour salt, sugar and dill. Squish around until combined. Add vodka, squish around some more. Add salmon to the bag. Rub and press some of the marinade over the salmon flesh. Press the two pieces together sandwich style. Rub the rest of the marinade over the skin side of the salmon. Seal the bag. Place in the refrigerator overnight.
