Brined salmon on the grill is not the most common recipe. But it's an old technique. Brining causes the salmon to release excess moisture and take on the flavors of the salt and spices. And that gives you a recipe with a top Umami taste.
Surprisingly delicious that is pickled salmon from the BBQ. And yes the preparation takes some work, but it is completely worth it. Because with the first bite you can taste the pure taste of the salmon combined with the herbs.
So good. I found a recipe on ehow.com, and of course, adapted it a bit.
