  • Dressing stores up to 2 weeks. The dressing can solidify in the fridge because of the oil, so bring to room temperature before serving.
  • Lemon and dill are a perfect pair with smoked salmon, as the acid helps to cut the fattiness of the fish. Paired with fresh dill, this salad is ultra-light and refreshing. I highly recommend using fresh dill in this case, but if you don’t have any available you can start with a teaspoon of dried dill and add more to taste as you go.
  • When shopping for smoked salmon, I always look for wild-caught salmon. Compared to farm-raised fish, wild-caught typically has a better ratio of anti-inflammatory omega-3 fatty acids to omega-6 fats, and it gets its natural dark pink colour from the antioxidant astaxanthin.
