Do you mean the curing involved the spices you named, or that's what came after the cure? More to the point...how did you cure that salmon? It looks delicious.

I started out with a nice fatty 3/4 lb skin-on belly filet.  The filet was dusted with the spice blend then I added a couple of very thin slices of orange and lemon.  The filet was covered with a mixture of 1/3 cup each of kosher salt and granulated sugar and vacuum bagged.  The cure time was 48 hrs.  Here's photo of the filet after the cure was washed off.

Had a splash out restaurant breakfast. Two poached eggs, hollandaise sauce, fresh baby herbs on grilled sourdough with a good sized helping of smoked salmon. Oh and avocado in there somewhere as well.

Cheese plate for breakfast

 

No photo description available.

 

What are the cheeses? I'm guessing the medium-gold is Parmesan and the palest might be something like pepper jack? But the deepest gold one is a mystery to me.

They are from that big package I got on sale at Costco a couple of weeks ago. There is a cheddar, Comtesse, truffle something, and I need to go look because memory fails.
