Cold smoking at home – how to succeed easily and affordably
When the fishing is good, you may end up with a catch that exceeds your daily needs. Cold smoking is a traditional and incredibly delicious way to preserve and process prized fish like salmon, trout, or whitefish. Many believe that cold smoking requires expensive professional equipment, but with the right tools, it can be done effortlessly at home.
The perfect smoke aroma in your own hands
In cold smoking, the fish is not cooked by heat; instead, it is raw-cured slowly by the combined effect of salt and cool smoke. For the process to succeed perfectly, smoke production must be steady and reliable throughout the smoking period. For this purpose, we have put together a ready-made package that allows even a beginner to grasp the secrets of the craft and infuse food with a wonderful smoky aroma.
Everything you need in one: The Tuohia Cold Smoking Set
We designed a complete system for the smoker that won't let you down. The Tuohia Cold Smoking Set contains all the essentials in one go: a high-quality cold smoke generator made of electropolished stainless steel wire, five fish hanging hooks, and a convenient cleaning brush. The generator's reliable smoldering channel ensures that the smoldering progresses evenly across the entire area, preventing it from jumping to adjacent channels.
How does a cold smoke generator work?
Cold smoking with this 23 cm x 21 cm generator can be done effortlessly in, for example, an old refrigerator, a kettle grill, or any other enclosed space. Operation has been made extremely simple:
- Fill: Pour dry, fine wood dust (e.g., beech dust) into the generator's chip compartment (approx. 4.5 dl / 75 g).
- Ignite: Place a candle in the provided ignition holder and let the dust begin to smolder.
- Smoke: Enjoy a burn time of up to 9 hours (depending on the dust and conditions), which ensures stable and quality smoke production.
Easy maintenance for years of enjoyment
After cold smoking, cleaning the equipment is quick. The included hanging hooks keep the fish securely in place, and after smoking, you can safely wash the hooks in the dishwasher for future use. The generator's fine-mesh screen, in turn, is easy to brush clean with the cleaning brush included in the set.
