...i like to add to the salt and sugar mix a 1/4 cup of vodka.
I've tried making it with Tequila and brandy (not in the same batch, of course
), but not vodka - that would be interesting. This time I only wanted the fresh dill flavor complementing the deliciously fresh salmon.
I fixed us a couple of plates of salmon topped with cream cheese, thinly sliced onion, and capers - for outside while in the hot tub. Also thinly sliced some of that delicious Christmas gift - using a porcelain blade allows slicing the prosciutto just about as thin as one purchases in the store.
