SueA posted 04-08-98 Salmon Jerky In The Frugal Gourmet Cooks American, Jeff Smith Stretch thin strips of salmon (sliced from a fillet) and place them on a rack in the oven (oven needs to have a pilot light) Wait around 12 hours and you will have jerky. Use a cookie rack on a cookie sheet to put the salmon strips on) This is a good thing to do at night when you are sleeping and your oven is not needed for other tasks.
