Salmon fillets seasoned with sugar, salt, dill, pepper and spirit.

Ingredients:

1.5-2 kg salmon fillets 1 tsp freshly ground pepper 3 tbsp salt 2 tablespoons granulated sugar 1 tablespoon of clear alcohol (vodka) 1 piece of fresh dill

Procedure:

1. Place the cleaned fillets skin side down on a plate, dust with caster sugar, salt and pepper, sprinkle with finely chopped dill and drizzle with alcohol
2. Cover with a second plate (bottom down) and weigh down with a weight, about 0.5 kg, or a tin can and chill
3. Every 12 to 24 hours unwrap the fish and brush with the accumulated juices
4. On the third day, the meat should have lost its translucent appearance (become opaque) and this means it is done, then slice it thinly and serve with lemon slices on dark bread.
