Did you know smoked salmon has been around since the 12th century?
That’s right — long before modern kitchens, people were already finding smart (and delicious) ways to preserve their catch.
Here’s how it all started:
🧂 Step One: Salt or Brine It
Fishermen preserved their salmon by salting it or soaking it in brine to pull out moisture and prevent spoilage.
🔥 Step Two: Into the Smokehouse
The fish was then hung over cool, slow-burning fires made from hardwoods like alder or oak — perfect for locking in that savory flavor.
🏚️ Step Three: Low & Slow
It would gently smoke for hours — even days — inside wooden huts. The result? A fish that could last months and tasted amazing.
