I have that one down. He

1.5 lbs black cod

brine:

2 cups water
1/6 cup salt
1/6 cup raw brown sugar
< 1/2 t cardamom
< 1 t nutmeg
< 1 t allspice
small amount white pepper

brine for 6 hours in refrigerator, rinse, cure for
12 hours in refrigerator

cold smoke until done (3 hours is best, 2 hours is acceptable)


Note in the above "rinse" means rinse under running water for
a solid five minutes.
