Combine all the salt and sugar in a bowl and mix well. This makes a dry brine for the salmon. Softly pat the dry brine in the bottom of a large baking pan that can hold the entire piece of salmon. Lay the side of salmon on top of the dry brine mixture with the skin side down.
Note, both light and dark brown sugar are perfect. Although you use a brine to add additional flavor to your fish, make sure you rinse the brine and dry the salmon fillets one hour before smoking.
We discovered that there are few to no recipes for simple keto smoked salmon. I have been following a ketogenic lifestyle for nearly three years – check out my keto beginner guide to see how I lost 85lbs – so it was important to me that this recipe be sugar-free.
Dry brining is also known as pre-salting. It involves rubbing the salt, adding seasoning directly onto the salmon skin, and then letting the meat stay in the refrigerator for some time before cooking. This makes salmon taste and looks DELICIOUS!
