A lot of hot smoked salmon for sale is kept completely refrigerated and unfrozen, and sold as long lasting until you break the seal. I am traveling overseas this week and my dad mentioned wanting to give some smoked salmon to a family friend. I suggested giving ours but we aren't sure how to make sure the fish survives the travel time. How do the commercial canneries keep their smoked salmon good for so long? I have limited fridge space at my apartment, so being able to keep it outside would be helpful for me too
