Hi there,
Which of the two methods produces the best results for keeping fish; hot or cold smoking? I am asking this because I read different things about it. Some say hot smoking, which in a way makes sense. But then again some say cold, which also makes sense as it takes a lot longer and gets more exposure to the smoke and probably dries the food a lot better. Of course much depends on the temperature and humidity in which you plan to store the smoked product, but I like to keep that out of the discussion because it complicates it.
Whats your opinion about this?
thanks!
