Gravlaks (Dill-Cured Salmon), When I think Scandinavian food, I think Gravlaks DH makes the best, but he was no help when asked for quantities So here is a recipe from Scandelicious that has the same basic ingredients I like this one because it doesn’t have alcohol, so it’s safe to serve for parties Though I must admit, I do like it better when there’s gin or juniper berries in the cure COOKING TIME IS MARINATING TIME, When I think Scandinavian food, I think Gravlaks DH makes the best, but he was no help when asked for quantities So here is a recipe from Scandelicious that has the same basic ingredients I like this one because it doesn’t have alcohol, so it’s safe to serve for parties Though I must admit, I do like it better when there’s gin or juniper berries in the cure COOKING TIME IS MARINATING TIME
