Steps:
- 1.Arrange salmon fillets in glass baking dishes or similar non-reactive containers. 2.Mix remaining ingredients in a large bowl. 3.Pour mixture over fillets, making sure they are covered, or until they float. 4.Cover containers and marinate for about 8 hours (or overnight) in the refrigerator. 5.Remove fillets from brine, pat dry with paper towels, and arrange on racks to dry in the refrigerator for 6 to 8 hours (or overnight) 6.Smoke fish according to your smoker's directions ( I typically keep it around 235-250F and have used alder wood, mesquite, fruit tree or hickory chips. Check frequently, keeping in mind that air temperature will influence smoking time. Typical smoking times range from 3 to 6 hours. A slightly wet product is best suited for many of the recipes we enjoy. For straight snacking, a drier product may be preferred.
MESQUITE-SMOKED SALMON
This wonderful salmon can be prepared in a smoker or barbeque and is outstanding served with my Recipe #232006. It's an elegant appetizer or first course but it can also be a lighter main entree also. I've used thick salmon filets instead of the whole fish. Originally from a July 1984 Bon Apetit magazine that featured A Glorious Feast for the Fourth of July. Marinating time is not included in prep time.

SMOKED SALMON IN A WOK
This is one of Martin Yan's recipes that I found to be an elegant smoked salmon. The salmon is easy to prepare and to smoke. A good heavy duty WOK with a lid is necessary. Chinese Oolong tea is a very good black tea that can be used if available in your area.

Steps:
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together soy sauce, Chinese rice wine, minced ginger and 2 teaspoons of sugar to make a marindade.
- If using frozen salmon, thaw before using.
- Cut salmon crosswise into 1 inch wide strips and add to marinade; turn to coat and marinate for 10 minutes.
- Line a heavy duty WOK with one large piece of aluminum foil letting the foil hang over the edge of the WOK.
- In a separate bowl, combine brown sugar, long grain rice, Oolong tea and star anise for the smoking mixture.
