Cold-smoked salmon is technically not cooked; it's dry-cured in salt, then smoked at a temperature between 70 to 85 degrees F, resulting in a silky, melt-in-your mouth texture.

Place the pot over medium heat and let it cook for 15 minutes, stirring very regularly. At the end of cooking, there should be a slight amount of liquid left; this is normal.

Warm-smoked salmon is smoked at a higher temperature (at least 120 degrees), which yields a meatier and flakier fish with a pronounced smoky flavor — ideal for these satisfying tartines.
