About
Smoked salmon is cured, smoked fish fillet that packs tightly, weighing just slightly more than water by volume.
Smoked salmon has a bulk density of around 8.8 ounces per cup (1.05 grams per milliliter), meaning it sinks in plain water. Curing and smoking remove some moisture while leaving the fish compact and oily. A standard 1-quart (0.95-liter) container holds roughly 2.2 pounds (1 kilogram) of chopped fillet. Its density is very similar to other dense, cooked meats like canned tuna or sliced ham.
From Wikipedia
