Place the salmon on a baking sheet. In a small bowl, combine salt, sugar, chile flakes and five spice powder. Mix well. Spread the gingerroot over the top and bottom of the salmon. Cover salmon with spice mixture on both sides. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 3 days, or until the fish is firm to the touch. To serve, slice the salmon as thinly as possible with a sharp knife. Serve cold with french bread and crème fraiche mixed with a wasabi paste.
