Smoked Sturgeon and Scallops

Ingredients

Preparation

  1. The Smoked Mackerel brine is adequate for processing other fish as well, but the curing time may differ. The dense, thick flesh of sturgeon, for example, may take up to 24 hours at the same temperature. We soak scallops in the brine for 30 minutes, and then smoke them for about an hour, or until they register a core temperature of 140°F (60°C).
