Cold smoking ideas
GrateEggspectations
Posts: 11,613
I'm about to receive the Amaze-n pellet/sawdust smoking tray I ordered. This particular model is recommended for cold smoking.
This will be my first foray into cold smoking and I am looking for ideas aside from meats (because of the health risks associated with the latter).
Was thinking I'll do cheese (the obvious choice), but would also like to try other items - maybe veggies, smoked salt to be used as a seasoning, etc.
Any recommendations for safe cold-smoked items? I'd love to hear them.
Thanks!

I can see hot smoking almonds. Do you not miss out on the crunch by cold smoking?Ima_good_egg said:I love smoked almonds. I buy roasted unsalted and toss in a bit of butter and seasonings. -
That's why I buy roasted almonds to start with. Nice and crunchy.Wisconsin, lbge, MM, kab, pig tail flippers, bear claws, and more rubs than I will admit to.

Cheez-its. Smoked Cheez-its are a thing these days.“Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away.” ― Philip K. Diçk

Mushrooms, are my favorite to smoke. Great to use in recipes. We did a crab mushroom and bleu cheese cake, we smoked the mushrooms for. Phenominal."Knowledge is Good" - Emil Faber

Tell me more about these mushrooms please. How long and which kind of sawdust/pellets did you use?Wisconsin, lbge, MM, kab, pig tail flippers, bear claws, and more rubs than I will admit to.

Cheese, salt, water are my automatics. The water is for ice cubes (bourbon, bloody marys etc)
@Chubbs suggested ketchup the other day, which I'm looking forward to trying.
