Google says Ramsay backs me up on how to cook salmon.


edit: Also Tinkles, I didn't say salmon was bad. Just that it's overrated. Fresh salmon done simply can be tasty.


But for some bizarre reason in america salmon is considered the be all end all of fish (along with swordfish - another wtf there) when it really isn't at all. Salmon is a middle of the bunch sort of fish. Neither awful like tilapia nor divine like snapper, sea bream or branzino.

Chefs go where the demand is. Salmon is sexy for some bizarre reason I can't understand so of course they will come up with various ways to cook it. That's also from a health cookbook made to be marketed to normal people so it's not a very good indication of anything.

His recipes aren't posted online, only the ones shown during TV. So they are hard to find with google. From his 2006 book "Passion for Seafood", there is a salmon fishcake recipe that I can't see that only just happens to get mentioned in the paragraph about the book, who knows what else is in it or his other recipe books..

Best advice Bonkman - try a few recipes and follow them EXACTLY.


What tastes good is GOOD. That's cooking to your palate 101.


Ur pal - Crackdoc.





ps: 'cheap' is a 'bad' way to describe a 'deal' - I buy non-farmed fish if I can - Black Tiger shrimp (no racist here ya know) which I really eat a lot, are mostly farmed and they have the usual perils of bad water, hygene etc.


Life is indeed a crapshoot.

Salmon is overrated but if you must it should be prepared simply with olive oil, lemon, salt and and pepper and nothing more. Salmon has too strong a taste to put in a sauce.



LOL


Salt! Pepper! Olive Oil! Oven! DONE....

Hey Bonk.... This is the 4th thread you've made in the past 3 years about how to cook a salmon steak. FYI.

I always hate to, but I have to agree with pretty much this entire statement.

Grind it up.

Apply generous amounts of Miracle Whip.

Serve with Potato Chips and sweet pickles.
