Pickled Salmon
The salmon looks appealing and tastes incredible. You can make this dish two days before you plan to serve it and the salmon will absorb the marinade which will intensify the great flavor.

a cup of dill? really? fresh or dry?
1 cup loosely packed fresh dill
This recipe is imprecise. For example, is the onion sliced, quartered or whole? The same for the lemon.Can you substitute dried dill weed and how much? What is a “few” minutes — 5 or 10?
Have just made this and will see how it comes out tomorrow for Shabbat lunch.
onions – sliced, lemons – halved, dill is optional so it can be left out or substituted for dried dill – about 2 tbsp. A few minutes = 5 minutes.
Hello,
Thanks, this looks really yummy. When I add the salmon to the simmering liquid, should I cook it with or without a lid? Tightly or loosely fitted?
Thank you.

“8 pieces of salmon ”
steaks of fillets, skin on or off and how big of a piece?
I can’t wait to get the answer and make this dish, it really looks yummy.
Thank you very much
fillets, size is around 2 inches – a regular portion
Here’s my story sad, but true. Salmon was on sale in my neighborhood, but you had to buy the whole side. So I bought the whole side, asked them to slice it, adjusted the recipe because I had more than it called for, figuring I’ll serve it by all three meals this Shabbos. Well, I was wrong. This fish was so delicious, that I kept tasting, and tasting, and some of the pieces broke a bit, so I ‘tasted’ them also… I hope I have enough for tonight. Salmon came out moist, succulent and spiced just right. Thank you for a wonderful recipe, please keep them coming.
Thanks for sharing – Bitayavon!
what is that salad on the side? Do you have a recipe for that?
