Bloody Mary Gravlax
This recipe uses Bloody Mary Rimming Spice in place of regular salt, giving the gravlax a gorgeous, slightly smoky, citrusy cure. The perfect compliment to a poppy seed bagel and chive cream cheese.
Ingredients:
- One-pound filet of salmon, thick cut preferable
- 1/2 cup The Real Dill Bloody Mary Rimming Spice (almost a whole tin)
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- One bunch dill
Directions:
- Cut a long piece of plastic wrap (long enough to wrap around your salmon filet at least twice) and lay in the bottom of a deep dish. (The gravlax will expel a bunch of liquid as it cures.)
- Place salmon on top of plastic wrap, skin side down.
- Douse salmon in Bloody Mary Rimming Spice and sugar, making sure every bit of salmon flesh is covered.
- Lay bunch of dill on top and wrap seasoned salmon very tightly in plastic wrap. Weigh the seasoning plastic-wrapped filet down with cans, bottles, or other heavy items, and leave to cure in the fridge for at least 12 hours and up to 72 hours.
