Instructions

  1. Place the skein on a work surface and use one hand to hold the skein firmly.
  2. Then use a spoon with the other hand to scrape along the top of the skein to remove the eggs from the skein. Repeat a couple of times until all the eggs are removed.
  3. Place the eggs onto a sieve and lower then into a glass bowl.
  4. Rinse with cold running water and make sure to rinse off any pieces of skein membrane and blood. Then remove the eggs to a clean dry bowl.
  5. In a large glass bowl, add water and salt. Stir until the salt is completely dissolved.
  6. Pour the brine over the eggs and soak them for 5 minutes.
  7. Strain out the water and place the eggs in a glass jar.

Notes

  • You will get about 1/2 pound of cured salmon caviar from every pound of salmon skein.
  • If your salmon caviar is too salty, you can rinse with water to reduce the salt level.
