Title: Northwest Sugar-Cured Salmon
Categories: Entree Seafood Diet Salmon
Yield: 4 Servings
| 2 | tb | Firmly packed brown sugar |
| 1 | tb | Cider vinegar |
| 1 | ts | Salt |
| 1/2 | ts | Freshly ground pepper |
| 1 1/2 | lb | Salmon or bluefish fillet or butterflied trout |
| Corn husks (optional) |
Cook the fish over a slow fire; if in doubt, let the coals burn down first. You can use any fatty fish in this recipe: We like the results with bluefish and trout, too.
1. Combine brown sugar, vinegar, salt and pepper in small bowl. Rub evenly over fleshy side of fish. Wrap and refrigerate at least 6 hours or up to 24 hours.
2. Heat grill. Grill, covered, skin side down, over medium-low heat 15 to 18 minutes (8 to 10 minutes for trout), until opaque. Turn fish over and grill, uncovered, 2 minutes more. Serve on corn husks, if desired.
