I found this too salty for my tastes. The next time I do this, I intend to soak the marinated fish in fresh water before drying in the oven to reduce some of the salt. I'll also do the short 15 minute marinade instead of the hour that I did this time.<br/><br/>Glad to find a recipe for salmon jerky! Thanks!
