All smoked salmon is not created equal, and Jewish smoked salmon, called lox, is not the same as the standard smoked salmon that you get from your regular grocery store. Lox is a Jewish delicacy that is usually eaten on bagels with cream cheese, but can be used in many other recipes.
While I like many other versions of smoked salmon, lox feeds my soul, because I have been eating it for my entire life. It is not a food that I eat very often, because it is quite expensive, but when I do, I enjoy every bite.

Salmon from SeaBear Smokehouse is the only salmon we eat. It's so delicous and much healthier than the Atlantic farm grown salmon. My husband Matt spends a lot of time in the Pacific Northwest and eats a lot of salmon there. So I tried an experiment and ordered some Coho Salmon from SeaBear to see if he could tell the difference. Oh Boy could he ever! One bite - just one bite - and he looked at me and said, "Where did you get fresh Coho Salmon?"
