  1. Rub the salt, sugar, pepper, dill, lemon, orange on top of salmon fillet (skin down if there is skin) and place this in colander with bowl under.

  2. Put a plate on top of the salmon (the idea is to weigh it down, I put a large ketchup bottle or something heavy on top of the plate) and put it into refrigerator for 2-3 days to allow it to cure. The juices from the salmon will run through the colander and into the bowl.

  3. Remove from refrigerator and rinse fish then pat dry slice SUPER thin.

  4. Serve on rye toasts which have been toasted crispy in oven, on top of toast place a dollop of cream cheese mixed with fresh dill, lemon, juice, salt, pepper.

  5. I put the cream cheese mix under salmon with a sprig of fresh dill on top.
