Serving
Serve gravlax on a wooden cutting board, garnished with fresh dill. It pairs perfectly with dark bread and mustard-dill sauce. Serve at room temperature with lemon cut into wedges.
🥡
Storage
Store leftover gravlax in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. You can also freeze the slices, but it's best to consume them within a month. Reheating is not recommended; it's best eaten cold.
