Reply to comment by Keffpie in [Homemade] Appetizers with graved salmon, cream cheese and västerbotten cheese by Flowerino

I am Swedish and we call it gravad lax or gravlax. I translated it because most people would understand salmon but not lax.

Yes, I figured - except that the preparation of salmon called "gravad lax" or "gravlax" in Swedish is also called "gravadlax" or "gravlax" in English. It's a loan word from Swedish, just like "Smorgasbord".

I know. But graved salmon is also an acceptable translation.
