  • @BarneyRubble9999

    I pat my salmon dry as much as I can. I also apply a layer of salt to the skin side while it tempers before cooking to make sure that the skin side is dry as possible before adding to my hot, oiled pan. This is something that my father taught me long ago to help ensure that the salmon skin comes out crispy and properly seasoned. 👍💯🇺🇸

      Always learning new stuff from you chef. Removing the cartilage strip from the equator. And I'm an avid angler and fish cookerer, with many different recipes and methods of cooking salmon. This is a new one, and I'm excited to use it. Thanks.
      Oh, and I am biased of course, but the wild salmon I catch in Alaska and here in Washington state, is way fattier than the one you have in this video. The almost pure white fat is literally oozing out all over it before you cook it, because it solidifies when you chill or freeze it.
      As always, great video.

    I LOVE salmon skin and the term you coined for it, bacon of the sea, is perfect. I'm definitely going to try that scoring technique next time I cook salmon. We eat salmon here a couple times a week. I won't buy ocean-farmed salmon though, because the sea-based farms are just killing off the wild species in British Columbia and salmon being a keystone species, it's affecting wildlife not just in the ocean, but way inland as well. I agree that the higher fat content of farmed salmon makes them more delicious though, so we buy land-farmed steelhead instead. Technically they are a trout, but they are the ancestor of all modern salmon, I'm told, and they are just melt-in-your-mouth scrumptious.

    In Sweden, home of the salmon, we don’t pan fry this fish. We cook it in the oven, where it becomes soft, moist and tasty, without a hard crust. A very common sauce to accompany it is yogurt/sour cream with fish roe and dill, sometimes with a bit of garlic added. In Summer, Swedish new potatoes with butter are the perfect accompaniment 😀

    Dude, I thoroughly enjoy your videos. You’re a great teacher and I’ve learned a ton watching. Keep em coming! I would like to get the celery salt recipe. “If you know you know..” I feel as if I’m on the outside. 😂
