martin_b Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 When cureing the salmon do I really need to cover the salmon with cling film? ( as I've run out!) I can leave on its own it in a seperate fridge so the odour isnt a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can leave on its own it in a separate fridge so the odour isnt a problem. It is always best to cover raw meat/fish when in a fridge. I am not sure what type of fridge you have but many cool by circulating cold air around the inside of the food chamber and this can easily spread bacteria onto ready-to-eat food. If it is alone in a separate fridge then that would be OK. What container are you curing it in? Do you have a roasting tray or glass dish that you could place over the top instead of the clingfilm.

martin_b Posted March 17, 2021 Author Share Posted March 17, 2021 Its in a roasting dish, so i could put another on top, however the fridge is used exclusively for beer, and the odd bottle of milk so as you say I should be OK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
