MORMORS SWEDISH GRAVLAX WITH MUSTARD DILL SAUCE TO MATCH

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! Unwrap the salmon and scrape off all the excess dill and dry mix. You now have gravlax ready to serve. Slice it thinly along the grain of the fish 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!

GRAVLAX AND MUSTARD SAUCE

Steps:

• With tweezers or pliers, pull out the intermuscular bones of salmon. In a non-reactive dish (glass, porcelain, enamel or stainless) large enough to accommodate the salmon without crowding, scatter half of the sliced onions and sprinkle half of the dill on the onions. In a small mixing bowl combine the salt, sugar, peppercorns and juniper berries and mix them well. Rub half of this mixture into the flesh side of the salmon and spoon rub half the juice and vanilla on the flesh; set the salmon, flesh side down on the dill and onions. Rub remaining salt mixture into skin side of salmon and remaining lemon juice mixture over that. Lay remaining dill on salmon, then cover with last of onion slices. Cover with plastic wrap, then weigh the salmon down with bricks, small iron skillets or canned goods. Cover the dish and weights with aluminum and refrigerate for 2 to 3 days. During the marination time, spoon the juices the salmon give off and marinade back over the salmon. After 2 to 3 days, or when ready to serve, remove salmon from the marinade and scrape off dill and onions from skin side, but leave it on for garnish from flesh side. Slice salmon as thinly as possible on diagonal toward tail and serve with mustard sauce. Or set slices of salmon with a dab of mustard sauce on black bread for hors d'oeuvres. To make sauce, mix two mustards, sugar and vinegar until pasty. With a wire wisk, slowly beat in oil until it forms a thick mayonnaise like mixture. Stir in chopped dill.
• for sauce: 1/2 cup dark prepared mustard, 2 teaspoons dry mustard, 1/3 cup sugar, 1/4 cup white cider vinegar,/ 2/3 cup vegetable oil and 1/3 cup chopped fresh dill.

Combine the salt, sugar, crushed peppercorns, and fennel seeds in a small bowl and sprinkle it evenly over the piece of fish. Place the other half of salmon over the dill, skin side up. Cover the dish with aluminum foil. Place a smaller pan on top of the foil and weight it with some heavy cans. Refrigerate the salmon for at least 2 and up to 3 days, turning it every 12 hours and basting it with the liquid that collects.
• Lay each piece of salmon flat on a cutting board, remove the bunch of dill, and sprinkle the top with chopped dill. With a long thin slicing knife, slice the salmon in long thin slices as you would for smoked salmon. Serve with dark pumpernickel bread and mustard sauce. You can also serve with chopped red onion and capers, if desired.

• 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.
