Oh my word. Honey, mustard and dill with the lax? Custard with the Bakewell tart, I assume ;)

The lax?

The bloody lax?

Have you been hanging out with Pru a lot recently or something?

Well no. Normally I call it gravadlax.

However, usually I'm in Scandinavia when I eat it and they tend to refer to it as Lax.

What's your bloody problem with that then?

Is Gravadlax pretty much just smoked salmon?

What's the difference then, without me having to google it? Knowing the Scandinavians (which I don't in all honesty), it'd probably be fermented or something!

Basically, yeah. They bury it in a gravel pit for a while.

You cure it with salt, sugar, dill , sometimes acquavit (or other spirit) and things like beetroot. Then leave it for a few days, that lot cooks the flesh.

Smoked is either hot (the heat cooks and flavours the salmon) or cold (obviously it doesn't, and many times these are also salted to aid the curing process).

So it's pretty similar in the end result, just getting there a different way?

Though I find gavadlax to be far less chewy.
