Tasting

In the Queen salmon side the flavours of fillet, classic and ventresca meet. The first part, softer and more velvety, is perfect to be tasted naturally, or with a little butter and pepper, or on toasted bread. The classic rear cut is excellent in tartare, enhanced by a few drops of peat whisky, pepper and a hint of grated ginger. The belly, that is the lower part of the side, should be served in small slices.

For gourmet preparations, follow the chef's suggestions in the Upstream recipe book.

Salmon side

The Queen differs from the others only in size; it represents the perfect combination of flavours between the sweetness of the fillet, the savouriness of the belly and the smoky aroma of the classic rear cut.

The Queen side is the whole half of the fish, deprived of head, tail, fishbone and thorns during the cleaning operations. In this cut different intensities of taste are encountered, depending on the natural conformation of the salmon,d the marinating and smoking processes, following the unique Upstream specification. For marinating, small quantities of sea salt and sugar are used in alternation; for smoking, beech from the Emilian Apennines is used to ensure its delicacy.This unique way of carrying out these two operations contributes to giving this salmon side an incomparable taste.

Every part of the side is delicate and refined, preserving the natural goodness and lightness that we find in all the cuts of the line dedicated to smoked salmon. The salmon side has very little fat.
