The shelf life of cold-smoked salmon is very short, one to two weeks in the refrigerator and about one month in the freezer. Storage time is another critical factor in the proliferation of Listeria bacteria since it can grow at low temperatures.
How long can I keep smoked salmon? â Allison Zeglis, Dexter, MI. If you're lucky enough to get a side of salmon as a holiday gift (or you simply have brunch leftovers), store the fish on the bottom shelf of your refrigerator, where it's coldest. Unopened, it will keep for two weeks; after opening, one week. Store opened salmon in the original package; over-wrap it in plastic wrap or place it in a self-sealing plastic bag to prevent dryness.
