Hi all

just finished my first cold smoke of a 1lb of salmon fillet.

Only thinking 1 stage at a time I froze the salmon, defrosted it, dry cured it for 24 hours, 12 hours pellicure and about 10 hours smoke.

Its very nice for a 1st attempt but I am unsure if I can freeze it or not?

if not how long should it keep in a airtight container in the fridge?

Many thanks
 
You can freeze. Preferable vacuum pack. If not too moist will keep in the fridge,in tbe container one week. If vac pack 2 weeks at least.
 
I haven't go a vacuum pack yet so single portions in clingfilm in the freezer?
 
If you double or triple wrap with your cling wrap it will last up to 6 months in the freezer. But after that it will start to get freezer burn.
 
Yes you can freeze cold smoked Salmon.   I will be doing it again, very soon.
