What Types of Food are Best for Cold Smoking?

Salami or smoked salmon are often the first things that spring to mind when we think of cold-smoked food. But there is actually a wide range of foods that can be cold smoked, like cheese, for instance.

If you have never cold-smoked before, it’s probably a good idea to get started with low-risk food like cheese and leave the salami to the professionals. This will allow you to get a handle on the technique without having to worry about the safety risks.

Some other foods that can be cold smoked and carry a lower health risk include

1. tofu (don’t laugh, it’s worth you)

2. nuts

3. vegetables.

4. hard-boiled eggs

5. olive oil

6. garlic

Meat like bacon that is cooked before serving is also a low risk. This helps to kill off any nasties that might have grown.

Sausage and fish (think smoked salmon) are popular cold smoking options, however, they carry a higher risk than other types of meat, as they provide just the right conditions for botulism to grow if not handled properly.
