Just Have to Share – Gravlax – Norwegian Salmon
| May 16, 2010 | Posted by Luschka under Favourite Recipes I Have To Share, Food, Seasonal Cooking |
I made this for Christmas one year and thought it was the best thing I’d ever tasted. When we were in Norway recently I ate smoked salmon by the tray full. Literally. I ate two whole fish almost single handedly in one week although my seven month old did have a pretty good portion too.…

Since then, I have been chatting with Andrew from Amber Teething Necklaces UK who has kindly offered a necklace to one of my readers. But first, let’s…
