SALMON
TASTING
Traditionally, smoked salmon is served on lightly buttered toast or blinis, with a hint of creme Fraiche and black pepper.
PARING SALMON
Why not push the boat out and enjoy a beautiful dry champagne or a refined white wine with our exquisite salmon range.
THE SALTING
Before the smoking starts, each fish is filleted and deboned by hand. The fresh salmon fillets are then sprinkled with a thin layer of salt (the dry salting technique) and are traditionally cured for up to 18 hours. The fillets are rinsed clean, removing any excess salt, and left to dry naturally before the smoking may commence.
THE SMOKING
The salmon is gently and carefully smoked on beech wood chippings to develop a wonderful smoky flavour. Once smoked, the salmon is left to further mature for up to 72 hours before being hand-trimmed.
THE SLICING
Our trained specialists, with great skill and precision, will remove the brown muscle before carefully cutting the salmon into perfect slices in our Gourmet House Caviar laboratories.
