Careful preparation of the exquisite salmon fillet acknowledged as a culinary masterpiece as far back as 1984 is reviving a tradition from the Court of the Russian Tsars. For special occasions only the very best will do. The entire side of salmon is lightly smoked using the Balik method. Thorough trimming makes every gram of Balik Fillet Tsar Nikolaj an indulgence!
To prepare for serving, cut the Balik Fillet Tsar Nikolaj vertically into approximately 1 cm thick medallions. This provides delicious petals of salmon, which can be beautifully decorated and taste out of this world.
This incomparable delight was a favourite of the Tsar. The art of Balik smoking creates a texture of mouthwatering tenderness in the salmon’s dorsal fillet. Surely the finest smoked salmon in the world !
