Methods and Directions

Smoked Salmon
  • To smoke the salmon, first dry the salmon by either using an oven or an industrial smoker. (Dried at 23°C for 5 hours.)
  • Heat some coals and place on a deep tray and scatter 30g of Ceylon Souchong tea leaves over it.
  • Insert a rack into the tray for the salmon to lie on so that it is not touching the coals.
  • Put the salmon on the rack and cover with a stainless steel tray for one hour.
  • Remove tray and take out the salmon.
  • Place the salmon on a tray, wrap with cling-film and place in the freezer.
Smoked Koraj cream Cheese
  • To cold smoke the cream cheese, heat some coals and place on a deep tray with 20g of Ceylon Souchong tea leaves on top.
  • Insert a rack into the deep tray and then place the cream cheese that is on a stainless steel tray on top so that it is not touching the coals.
  • Cover with a stainless steel tray for one hour. Remove tray and take out the cream cheese.
  • Refrigerate until needed.
Focaccia
  • Place all the ingredients in a mixing bowl.
  • Mix at low speed for 2 minutes and 9 minutes at high speed.
  • The dough should have a maximum temperature of 25°C.
  • Take a plastic bowl and grease it lightly with olive oil.
  • Give a bulk fermentation of 60 minutes.
  • Place the dough on a ‘bed’ of flour and get some of the air out of the dough.
  • Place the dough in a deep baking tray which is greased with olive oil.
  • Prove for 90 minutes.
  • Bake at 230°C for about 30 – 35 minutes.
Mille Feuille
  • To assemble the mille feuille take the smoked salmon out of the freezer and slice very thin. On a piece of cling-film lay the first slice of salmon.
  • Pipe a small amount of the cream cheese on the salmon spreading thinly and evenly using a spatula.
  • Repeat this process five more times with the final layer being salmon as this will be the top of your mille feuille.
  • Freeze for 24 hours. Remove from the freezer and cut into 4cm long and 2.5cm wide rectangles and place on the toasted focaccia.
  • Garnish with salmon roe, edible flower and micro greens.
