We set out with the idea in mind that the perfect smoked salmon is a balanced combination: the salt and smoke trigger umami, while the fish itself is buttery, silky, and smooth. Variety didn't matter; most of the samples in our lineup were farm-raised Atlantic salmon, and the one wild sockeye salmon landed in the middle of the rankings. The type of wood wasn't a factor either. Our top product is smoked with oak, but so are products at the middle and bottom of our lineup. Wrap two similar sized salmon fillets, flesh to flesh, with plastic wrap or a plastic bag, then place in a cooler.
