Ikarrat

Fish fillets salted and then slowly smoked, with firm flesh and deep flavour. Smoked fish accompanies bread and everyday meals, and keeps well for a long time thanks to the salt and the smoke.

Instructions

  1. Mix the salt, sugar and pepper in a bowl.
  2. Rub the fish fillets with this mixture, then lay the dill over them.
  3. Place the fillets in a dish, cover and refrigerate for 12 hours, turning them once.
  4. Rinse the fillets quickly in cold water and pat them dry thoroughly.
  5. Leave them to air-dry for 1 hour so a thin skin forms.
  6. Smoke the fillets over very gentle heat, at about 60 °C, for 2 hours with the wood shavings, or cook them in a low oven at 80 °C with a little smoked straw.
  7. Let them cool completely before storing in the fridge.

Variations and tips

Without a smoker. In a low oven, with a little smoked paprika added to the salt, you get a close flavour.
