Arctic char gravlax marinated in red wine and maple syrup

 

Serves four

Ingredients:
One 300 g filet arctic char (“omble chevalier”, salmon or trout)
30 g coarse salt
20 ml maple syrup from the Rang des Vents
Red wine (a sufficient quantity)

  • Clean fish filet by removing skin and bones.
  • Place in a dish that has a cover, and cover it with the salt and maple syrup. Place in refrigerator overnight (12 hours).
  • The next day, rinse the fish filet with cold water and cover it with red wine. The smaller the container, the less wine required.
  • If there are several filets, they must not overlap in the dish.
  • Place in refrigerator for another 12 hours.
  • Remove, drain, and dry with paper towels.
  • Cut into fine strips that you will place on the plates.

You can serve a green salad with it, dressed with a maple-flavoured vinaigrette.
