Cold Smoke Salmon and/or Lox Lovers…?
I’ve been working with cold smoke for a couple of years and I’m looking for someone who knows how it’s done in New York City. I’m really interested in finding out how you like it sliced. I slice the salmon filet at an angle getting a nice broad slice but my boyfriend slices straight down getting a thinner slice. All are thinly hand sliced. Also can you taste the difference between hand sliced and machine sliced. What do you think of the dark red meat? I’m trying to figure out if I should cut it out, but can’t find any instructional websites on how to cut it out before slicing. Would love any instruction you can offer. I’ve checked out the Zabar’s website in NYC but can’t see a picture of sliced lox to see how they do it. Please help. Thanks so much and have a great day.
The angled, big slices are the best .. you can do so much more with it in terms of presentation, and I just think it feels better, softer, more tender (may be imagination)

How to Buy Top Quality Seafood – Fresh, Frozen, Smoked and Canned
Seafood remains popular as consumers look for simple, healthy meal choices. The benefits of eating fish and other seafood are being reported almost daily, with governments all over the planet endorsing seafood as an essential part of a healthy diet. In addition to health benefits, consumers like the ease of preparation, versatility and rich flavor that seafood offers. When choosing main courses, these attributes make fish and seafood an excellent addition to weekly meal plans.
Fish and seafood is available in a myriad of forms. Seafood markets and other outlets offer fresh fish, often just hours from being caught. Surprisingly, extremely fresh seafood can be purchased online. Items are immediately cleaned and prepared to cook then rushed to the purchaser, packed in dry ice which keeps the product chilled during shipment. A few specialty online stores even ship live crustaceans, and mollusks in special containers that insures the precious cargo will arrive in peak condition. Popular live shipped seafood includes lobsters, crabs, oysters, scallops, clams, mussels and other shellfish.
Another choice for buying fresh seafood is to join a community catch share program. These innovative marketing plans provide a means of connecting consumers to fishermen. Members pay a fee in advance for a specified amount of seafood. When harvesting occurs, members are notified and arrive to pick up the freshest seafood imaginable, virtually right off the boat. Community catch share programs are an excellent way to get quantities of exceptional quality seafood at a reduced price.
Frozen products are an excellent choice when purchasing seafood. Frozen fish and shellfish are available not only from seafood markets, but at practically any grocery or specialty food store. Frozen products are usually harvested, processed and flash frozen, sometimes at sea. Other species can be iced and rushed to port, then flash-frozen and sent to retailers. Of particular interest to gourmet cooks are frozen fish in vacuum packaging or coated with a protective coating of ice.
Smoked and dried fish is another delicious product that is widely available. Smoking enhances flavor, concentrates beneficial fish oils and preserves fish. Vacuum packaging protects the product and eliminates the need for refrigeration. Many of the most sought after and respected seafood recipes include smoked products such as wild salmon, char, cod, haddock, saithe, mackerel, herring, dogfish and other species of fish. Standard smoked products are available in most retail outlets while gourmet products can be found in specialty shops or via online seafood stores. As with other fish, premium product is sometimes available direct from the fishermen.
Surprisingly, even canned seafood can be of impeccable quality. Canned seafood does not need refrigeration and can be stored for months or longer. Everyone is familiar with canned tuna, but there are plenty of other canned seafood products, many of which are delicious, healthy and easy to prepare. Canned fish and other seafood is available in a variety of forms, from large sizes down to single serving travel containers. Non-traditional packaging is also offered, with pouches being a frequent choice for consumers. Some of the most popular fish species available as canned products include tuna, salmon, anchovies, sardines, herring and other well known fish. Other seafood offered as canned products includes crab meat, lobster meat, oysters, clams, mussels, cockles, cold water shrimp and others.
With such an array of options, it is easier than ever to enjoy seafood at home. Be it fresh lobsters, smoked salmon or canned chowders, an option is available for every occasion, diet and price range.

what can I do with some hot smoked salmon for use on a buffet?
I’ve home smoked some salmon that I was going to serve on a buffet on little gems with a horseradish & creme fraiche dip.
The salmon has flaked coming out of the smoker so any suggestions on how I can serve this now? Its for a cold finger fork buffet.
You could mix it with cream cheese and chives and blend to make a Smoked Salmon Pate to eat on some sort of bread.
You could mix it with egg mayonnaise and and put it on sandwiches.
You could make a salmon+prawn cocktail
Or just simply with cream cheese and pitta breads.

Promised Land [CD-ROM] Queensryche’s follow-up to the double-platinum Empire is something of an acquired taste, but it’s well worth the effort. There’s considerable variety here; the heavy progressive-rock of “I Am I” and the ballad “Bridge” were hit singles, but there’s also the funk-inflected “Disconnected”, the edgy, spooky “Lady Jane”, and the piano-and-vocals “Someone Else?”. The title track is probably the stronge… |
