Loimulohi

(Loimutettu lohi)

Loimulohi is a traditional method of preparing salmon or rainbow trout. The fish is smoked on a wooden plank that's placed vertically over an open fire. Before the process, the salmon is usually seasoned with sea salt and drizzled or brushed with lemon juice, honey, or juniper berries.


The cooking time depends on the distance from the coals. Once done, the smoky fish can be eaten straight off the plank.
