Quick-Cured Salmon with Dill

A Himalayan salt plate is excellent for quick-curing meats and fish. For this recipe, use the freshest, top-quality salmon you can find and ask the fishmonger to slice it for you. Be sure to chill the salt plate before using to keep the fish cold and easy to work with. The longer the salmon sits on the plate, the saltier it will become, so adjust the time as desired.
