So this was my second batch of cured salmon which was absolutely delicious. This time I kept a true Scandinavian vibe and flavoured it with dill, sugar, salt and gin which gave it a clean delicate taste. Definitely worth a try.

Remove from the fridge and discard the juices. Wash the salmon under the cold tap. Pat dry with kitchen towel. Remove the skin with a sharp knife to begin with, then carefully pull the skin away. Slice and serve.
