Gravlax

Gravlax is a Scandinavian cured salmon dish made by curing fresh salmon fillets with a mixture of salt, sugar, and dill. The process involves covering the fish with the curing mixture and refrigerating it for several days, which draws out moisture and develops flavor. The result is tender, flavorful, and slightly salty salmon with a silky texture. Gravlax is often thinly sliced and served as an appetizer on bread or crackers, accompanied by mustard sauce or fresh dill. It’s a popular delicacy highlighting simple, fresh ingredients and traditional curing methods.
