Welcome to the episode where we will prepare salmon gravlax.

2

The process takes a few days, but you can achieve a flavor that surpasses packaged salmon.

3

I bought the salmon from Metro market, known for their fresh and quality products.

4

I will cut the salmon fillet into a size that fits my dish, as the whole piece doesn't fit in the fridge.

5

I will use the fatty part of the salmon for gravlax, which is the most flavorful.

6

I will prepare the seasoning mixture now.

7

Add approximately 150 grams of sea salt to a bowl.

8

Then add 150 grams of brown sugar to the bowl.

9

I will also add about 100 grams of freshly ground mixed peppercorns.

10

Mix all the ingredients in the bowl until they are homogenous and without lumps.

11

Now, I will coat the salmon fillet with the mixture, ensuring it covers all sides.

12

After coating, I will cover the salmon with plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for about 48 hours.

13

I will check it occasionally, as it will release a lot of water. Do not touch the water, but you can spoon some of it over the salmon.

14

After 48 hours, I will remove it from the fridge and prepare it for serving.

15

I will slice the gravlax into thin pieces and serve it on a sandwich.

16

For the sandwich, I will use a nice French baguette, preferably sourdough.

17

I will spread some labneh cheese on the bread, add fresh arugula, and layer the gravlax slices on top.

18

You can add avocado, olive oil, or pickles if desired, but I prefer to keep it simple with just greens.

19

Enjoy the delicious sandwich!
