Sugar is part of the curing process.

In making gravlax. If you don't use 50/50 mix you're just making salted fish. Kind of like how your mom's pussy smells

It isn’t necessary at all. At least not in the process of making gravlax.

Because salmon is delicious, rich and tender, while trout is like a boot made out of fish.
