Salmon do it yourself

Ole Lydersen

Last week's Observer's Food Monthly has dedicated a few pages to selected "net-savvy, small-scale producers". I have always felt inspired by people who are brave enough to sometimes entirely re-invent themselves. Food has become the area where everyone with a certain taste for good quality things would like to be, but how often there is a lack of substance.
The story of Ole Lydersen and his family of Norwegian salmon fishmongers is fascinating and even more intriguing is to read that he has built a smokehouse practically at home. I can't wait to learn more about his salmon, especially since I signed for the Fish Fight campaign earlier this month, and I am very committed to eating less of the obvious fish, and only when supported by sustainable values.
Ole's smoked salmon should be very yum and I can't wait to taste it too.
