Juniper & dill rub
En och dill
Crushed juniper for salmon and game
You need
- 1 msk juniper berries, crushed
- 1 msk dill seed
- 1 msk coarse salt
- 2 tsk white pepper
- 1 tsk sugar
- Zest of one lemon
Crush the juniper, do not grind it. A mortar and a dozen firm presses is right. Ground to powder it turns resinous and tastes of gin, which is a different thing from tasting of the forest.
On a salmon fillet, twenty minutes before the fire and no longer, or the salt will start curing it. On moose, roe deer or red deer, an hour.
