Method

Place salmon skin-side down on a tray lined with foil and clingfilm and pat dry.

Toast mustard and cumin seeds for 3 minutes, grind coarsely, and mix with chilli and lime zest.

Press the spice mixture firmly into the salmon flesh.

Mix salt, sugar, and tequila in a bowl and spread over the salmon.

Wrap salmon tightly in foil and clingfilm, weigh down with another tray and weights, then chill for 48 hours.

Combine the goat's cheese, yoghurt, water, herbs, and lime for the dip.

Thinly slice the salmon and serve with the dip and pumpernickel bread.
