Gravlaxsosa (The Real Deal) image

*This recipe is a personal treasure* ! The literal translation of the Icelandic word *Gravlaxsosa* is "smoked (or pickled) salmon sauce", but its versatility widens its use horizons. When I 1st came to Iceland & tasted this, I was in love for a lifetime. I've always bought it in commercially prepared jars, but only just recently acquired the recipe for it. I promise you will adore this easy-fix taste sensation! (Time does not include overnight refrigeration)

Time 10m

Yield 16 1 tbsp servings, 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons prepared mustard (a sweet variety)
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon fresh dill (minced)
1/2 teaspoon coriander
2 tablespoons sour cream
7 ounces olive oil
salt & pepper (to taste)

Steps:

  • In a 3 cup or larger bowl, whisk the 1st 8 ingredients to combine.
  • Gradually add olive oil in a stream & whisk to combine well. Add salt & pepper to taste & refrigerate for 24 hrs to allow flavors to blend.
  • NOTE: I use a wide-mouth jar w/screw-on lid + my immersion blender to make & store this in a single step.
  • TO SERVE: Simplicity is the most-favored presentation - as a bruschetta-type appy where 1/2-in slices of baguette bread are spread w/cream cheese, topped w/very thinly sliced smoked salmon & then this sauce is spread over the salmon slices. A few tiny capers can be centered as an opt garnish.
  • HINT: For never fail perfect slicing of smoked salmon, freeze the salmon to a near frozen state & use your sharpest knife to shave slices of desired thickness.
