As part of its Rosh Hashana marketing, Acme smoked fish company sent us some products to try. We tried the Smoked Nova Salmon, Pastrami Smoked Salmon, the wild-caught Smoked Whitefish salad, and the wild-caught Herring in Cream Sauce. Because of the high fat content (hello Omega 3s) the salmon can either be hot smoked or cold smoked. For the pastrami smoked salmon, the pastrami spices are added after curing and before cold-smoking. Pastrami Smoked Salmon – The pastrami lox had the same texture as the Nova salmon.
