Preparation of Gravlax with Black Truffle and Truffle Honey
In a bowl, mix the coarse salt, brown sugar, chopped dill, and pink peppercorns. Add a drizzle of black truffle olive oil for an intense aromatic touch. Spread a thin layer of this mixture on a dish, place the salmon on top, then completely cover it with the remaining marinade.
Wrap the salmon tightly with plastic wrap and let it rest in the refrigerator for 24 hours. This crucial step allows the fish to firm up and absorb the subtle flavors of black truffle and fresh herbs.
After resting, gently rinse the salmon under cold running water to remove excess salt and spices. Pat it dry carefully with paper towels. You will get a silky, melt-in-the-mouth texture.
Slice the gravlax thinly. Arrange the slices harmoniously on a slate platter. Drizzle with black truffle olive oil, add a few drops of truffled acacia honey, and sprinkle with fresh black truffle shavings. Finish with a few sprigs of dill and pink peppercorns.
