Have you ever considered making your own lox? It’s really not hard but it is incredibly time consuming and if it’s not done correctly it won’t be good.

Finding a reliable source for your lox and bagels can be difficult as well. However, the solution just might be at your fingertips – online ordering of your seafood products, smoked salmon, halibut steaks, and, yes, even lox.

Lox is a smoked salmon that has been either wet or dry cured, and then, normally cold smoked. If you have never had it, it is a wonderful way to eat salmon when you add it to bagels with cream cheese.

Look online for legitimate companies who can deliver this or any number of other gourmet foods to your doorstep – generally it will come in an insulated container packed in dry ice. You can usually specify the delivery date so that you are sure to be there to recieve it upon arrival – this will allow you to get it to the freezer immediately.
