Gravad Lax With A Mustard And Dill Sauce

Features:
    Cuisine:

    Annelies, ("Pets'Rus") I have made, almost inhaled, but left over some of your "Gravad Lax With a Mustard and Dill Sauce". Originaly, my intentions we to make this to compare with my own recipe for Gravlax. Not only was this fun to make, but it was out of this world. It is similar to my version, but I do love this variation as much as my own. Also, to others reading this review, Annelies privately emailed me with a brilliant suggestion: Using the leftovers from this recipe, mix with my Spaghetti Al Limone ( With Lemon ) recipe #129667. Annelies suggested that her Gravad Lax would probably go brilliantly with my Lemon Pasta. So I took her advice, and I'm glad I did because WOW! was it ever fantastic. She is going to try a variation of her own next week when she makes the Pasta with Lemon. But she deserves all the credit for being the one who came up with the idea of marrying the 2 recipes. Bravo Annelies!

    Do not Pour Off the Curing Liquid If It Leaks Through the Cling Film, Unless There Is a Change of Over-Flowing.

    8
