Reduce heat and barely simmer for about fifteen minutes, stirring to dissolve sugar. Set aside to cool. (When cool add lemon juice) Remove brined salmon from frig, wash and drain and dry. Cut fish into one inch pieces, removing tails and fins.

Place fish in a sterilized gallon far, one layer of fish and one layer of sliced onions. Pour in enough cold pickling liquid to cover fish. Allow to stand refrigerated for 48 hours before eating. Pickled fish will keep refrigerated for up to 3 months.
