Hey Guys,
I've lost a recipe that everyone thought was great, and am hoping that someone here knows it. I'm 99% sure it came from this site a number of years back.

I recall it had smoked salmon, italian dressing, relish, chopped jalapeno peppers and onions, etc. I've tried a couple variations, but it's still missing something. It had no cream cheese or sour cream in it, so no dairy. The dressing had an interesting look to it, but once someone tried it, they couldn't leave it be. A great kick to it...

If anyone can help, would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Somebody must remember this !! Hopefully it can be found. It sounds great.

Found this one on Bing search. You could add other stuff, I guess

Brine for Smoked Salmon

by local cooks Jon and Jerry Stuefloten

1 large bottle of Kikkoman's Teriaki sauce
1 large bottle Wishbone Italian dressing (equal proportions to above)
1 medium white onion
2 buds garlic
pinch of salt and pepper
1 cup dark brown sugar
1 cup white wine

Fine dice the onion and garlic and mix all ingredients in a large bowl. Mix thoroughly to ensure that the brown sugar is dissolved. Brine the fish for one day. Remove fish pieces and let drain. Pat dry. In a cold smoker (under 180 degrees) with Hickory chips, place the pieces of salmon on the racks provided. Salmon pieces should not exceed 3/4 inches in thickness. Smoke for 12 hours.
