Easy Smoked Salmon Recipe

This delicious smoked salmon recipe is brined in a wet brown sugar and citrus brine and then finished with a sweet orange glaze for incredible flavor.

This smoked salmon tastes amazing, and you can serve it hot or cold.

INGREDIENTS:

– light brown sugar – sea salt – orange – lemon – salmon – unsalted butter

Start by bringing the water, citrus zest, brown sugar, and salt to a boil.

Once the sugar and salt are dissolved, remove them from the heat and add the ice cubes to chill the brine. Set it aside.

Next, trim the salmon’s side, removing the fish’s belly fat and tail end.

Add the salmon to a non-reactive dish and cover it completely by pouring it on the brine.

If the salmon doesn’t want to stay under the brine, you can flip it over, so it is scaled side up.
