I was intimidated by the smoking process, so I cooked the brined salmon in a skillet. Didn't have access to the unusual greens, so sued kale. Would have preferred more in proportion to the noodles. Very good flavors and easy to make.

Does the salmon really only take 8 minutes at 145-150? Every recipe I have followed for smoked salmon takes 2 plus hours.

I've been making this recipe for a few years, and I'm not sure if I've commented on it before, but it is off-the-hook delicious! I have a friend who requests this every year for her birthday. This is the raison d'ȇtre for my stovetop smoker.

Made this last night and the wife and kids loved it. Wife said, "This is restaurant quality". Hot smoked the salmon on my grill offsetting the charcoal and a using a chunk of cherry wood. Prep was easy but the flavors were big. Served this close to room temp, but may chill it next time to experience this cold.

Thinking of trying my hand at this lovely recipe this weekend, but wondering if it would be tasty served cold. Any thoughts?

I'm gearing up to try this . . . what kind of wood chips should I buy for this purpose? (I don't own any, and don't remember ever having bought them, so I don't have a favorite.) Many thanks. ;o)

Sorry AJ, I just today saw this as comments on my recipes have been going into the spam filter. I just used oak, actually.

Our little town has a new "European-style" market house next to our weekend farmer's market. One of the vendors sells smoked fish and their salmon smoked with Chinese 5-spice and green tea is out of this world! If I'm feeling lazy, I will buy some and try serving it this way. Also, in response to some of the questions about smoking techniques, I have smoked fish and chicken on my electric stovetop using a disposable foil pan (actually, I used 2 to double the thickness), a small cake rack and aluminum foil. This works on a grill, too.

Lucky you!! I was talking with a chef about smoking fish over tea leaves. He tells me that is a Japanese technique. I have to do some research on what kind of tea leaves and how many. If I find that info out, I'll pass it along.

My farmer's market fishmonger has wonderful smoked salmon each week. But, what is tat soi?

It's a variety of Asian cabbage that is slightly peppery. I get it here in Central PA because it's a hearty spring crop and all the farmers at my market grow it -- and sell it. I've also seen it at Asian groceries. If you can't find it, you could use baby spinach or I've made it with pea shoots as well.

This looks amazing. I logged on this morning to look up the porchetta recipe but couldn't resist the photo and had to check the recipe immediately! Thank you so much, can't wait to try this. Also, just want to say I LOVE Jill Santopietro's little videos - wish she could have her own food show, she's hilarious and informative!

I would imagine if youcan get the electric wok hot enough to do a proper stirfry than it could get hot enough to smoke. Good luck. Let me know how it turns out!

This looks awesome. I have an electric wok. Do you think it would work in that?

Cannot wait to try this. I've never smoked anything this way, so I'm thrilled to see that it is so easy. (And fortunately, I have a quite powerful hood over my stove.) I cannot believe, sometimes, how much I learn, day to day, just visiting food52! Many thanks to the editors, and to cheese1227 for this amazing recipe. ;o)

Sounds delish.. do you think it would work on a gas grill rather than stove top??

I think you could easily do this on the grill in on of those disposable roasting pans covered very tightly with aluminum foil. Let me know how it goes.

I loved the way this recipe sounded when you first posted it. Unfortunately, like moneymom, my fan is terrible---but I wish I could taste it! (maybe on the grill outdoors?)Congratulations!
