Salad
1 handful of watercress dressed with simple vinaigrette

Mix salt, sugar, black pepper, allspice, and ground cloves.  Liberally sprinkle on both
sides of the fish.  Lay half of the dill in a glass container.  Place the fish on top
and cover with rest of the dill.  Leave out for 1-2 hours then cover and put in the refrigerator overnight.  Scrape off the dill and excess salt mixture.  Serve on dark bread rounds spread with the butter mustard mixture.  Top with the dressed watercress and drizzle with creme fraiche or sour cream.
