Beetroot and tequila cured salmon

Beetroot and tequila cured salmon

Curing salmon is a Nordic dish using a mix of salt, sugar and dill to cure the fish. This version is done with tequila, beetroot and spices giving it a sweet, licorice-like flavour that lends an earthy, sweet taste to the meaty salmon. The wholegrain mustard in the horsey-goat provides a pleasant pop between your teeth! That, added to the crunch of the cucumber ribbons and the saltiness of the capers and the sweet-earthiness of the salmon makes this a party in your mouth! Warning: this dish takes 12-24 hours to make, so don’t think you’re going to serve it immediately. It’s worth the wait, though!
