Cut the salmon into approximately 0.5 cm wide pieces. Pick and chop half of the dill. Mix together 3 tablespoons of lemon juice, the salt, the sugar, a pinch of pepper, and the chopped dill. Pour 1/3 of this into a dish (approx. 25 cm long). Place the salmon slices on top and spread with the remaining mixture. Cover with foil, weigh them down with a board, and refrigerate overnight. Trim the celery, wash the apple, and finely dice both. Finely chop the remaining dill. Mix both mustards with the lemon juice and apple juice, salt, pepper, and oil. Mix in the apple, celery, and dill. Scrape the salt mixture off the salmon. Drizzle the lemon-mustard mixture over the salmon and serve.
