Steps:

• Mix salt, sugar, and white pepper to form the seasoning mix.
• Preparing storing dish (glass, metal, etc is fine - only has to hold wrapped up fish for 4 days in fridge) by placing a generous amount of aluminium foil on it.
• Chop a handful of dill roughly and place 1/4 of it in the dish to form a bed for the salmon to sit on.
• Take the two equal size pieces of salmon and wash over the sink with the dark liquor. Pat to dry and place aside.
• Using half of the dry mix, rub the mix into one salmon piece to cover all sides. Use the remaining dry mix for the other salmon piece.
• Place the first salmon piece skin down on the bed of dill. Place more dill on top and around the sides.
• Place the second salmon piece (skin up) on top of the first piece to form a salmon sandwich with dill in between and all around both pieces.
• Wrap tightly with the aluminum foil previously laid over the dish.
• Place dish in the fridge with a heavy-ish cookbook on top of the wrapped up salmon. Make sure it will evenly distribute its weight over the packed salmon. This is to squeeze the liquid out of the salmon.
• Wait two days, drain any liquid out of the dish, flip the salmon pack over and place back in the fridge with the book on top.
• Wait another 2 days and voila! You now have gravlax ready to serve. Slice it thinly with a fillet knife (check youtube for technique).
• To prepare the mustard dill sauce: Take all ingredients (except olive oil and dill) and whisk together in a bowl. Put olive oil in a container suitable for slowly pouring into the mixture. While whisking, slowing pour in olive oil to ensure it mixes well. Keep whisking. Add the finely chopped dill into the mixture (ensuring there are no stems in the dill). All done!

Steps:

• To make the curing mix: place the salt, sugar and white pepper into a medium sized bowl. Add the dill and stir to combine.
• Line a large, shallow, rectangular dish, to fit the salmon, with plastic wrap. Sprinkle over a quarter of the curing mixture, spread over the base and top with one of the salmon fillets, skin-side down.
• Sprinkle over half of the cure and top with the other half of the salmon skin-side up.
• Sprinkle over the remaining curing mixture on top of the fillet and wrap up in the plastic wrap.
• Weigh the fish down with some cans or weights on top to remove any excess liquid or moisture.
• Place in fridge, turning the salmon over every 6 hours, for 3-4 days, where possible.
• Before serving the gravlax, rinse the cure off the fish to remove the salt and pat dry with kitchen paper.
• Sprinkle the remaining dill over one side of the salmon and then sandwich the two fillets together again.
• Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and chill for 6 hours.
• To make the sauce: in a large bowl whisk the mustard and sugar together with the egg yolk.
• Gradually whisk in a steady trickle of oil, making sure the oil is well emulsified. Start to add the oil at a constant pace.
• Add the fresh dill and mix well.
• To serve, cut the gravlax thinly (gravlax is traditionally served thicker than smoked salmon).
• Place 3-4 good slices on a plate along with a spoonful of the sauce.
• Serve with rye bread.
