It is true that the piece of salmon may contain parasites. I did not have problems with the gravlax I made without freezing it. My friend never had problems either. It simply shows that most of the times it is OK or that we were lucky, or that we have a more resilient body constitution. Beware, that I read that the home freezer may not be cold enough to kill the parasites. You need a commercial freezer to do that. It seems that it can be done by other commercial techniques as well but it is hard to find reliable facts on that matter. The safer option would be to get sushi grade since technically, they are supposed to be parasite-free. But even that, is not 100% safe.

I've never made gravlax before and had no idea it was so easy. I have some curing in my fridge right now. I can't wait to try it in a couple days. (Note: True North Salmon Company is a client.)

I read in places that you need to freeze the salmon before hand in case there are parasites. What's your opinion on that? I love salmon and will definitely try this out. That looks great!
