Salmon is a great fish, rich in protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and in vitamin D. Salmon is born in fresh water, swims to the sea, and comes back to lay its eggs in fresh water. Its habitat is the North Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, but also the Great Lakes. You can eat it poached, raw like in sashimi, grilled, baked, and lox (smoked or cured in brine, also known as gravlax). In this case we are going to use lox salmon. It already comes in thin slices and we are going to form rolls.
Ingredients:
6 Ounces of Pre-Sliced Wild Alaskan Salmon (lox) or Scottish Wild Salmon (Salmón Ahumado)
1 Cream Cheese Package
1/2 Cup Dill Finely Chopped
1 Lemon Zest
1 Teaspoon Lemon Juice
Other:
Plastic wrap
Kitchen String
Take the cream cheese from the refrigerator and let it sit until it becomes workable, add the dill, lemon zest and lemon juice. Mix everything very well, so it becomes evenly mixed.
Overlap the slices of salmon over a plastic wrap and put the mix evenly over it. Start rolling with the help of the plastic. When done, twist the end sides and tie. Put in the freezer until it hardens so it is easier to cut in slices. Serve on a platter with dill and lemon, put the salmon on bagel crackers.
You will look great serving this rolls in this upcoming holiday season or any other occasion.
