Among the better ways, toast it in the toaster oven. Not a pop-up slice toaster!

  1. Turn on the kitchen vent, open a window, tun on the air purifier, whatever.

  2. Put your salmon fillet skin-side-down on a piece of parchment or aluminum foil on the pan that fits in your toaster oven. No skin? Don't worry, it's fine.

Here's where you separate a tiny bit for the cat that gets cooked but not seasoned

  1. Sprinkle the top with seasoned salt and dill. Oil is not necessary, salmon has plenty of its own fat. Lemon can wait until you're about to bite into it.

  2. Hit TOAST. If you have to choose a number choose the middle one. Go make your salad.

  3. When it beeps, see if it's perfect or needs another round, maybe on a smaller number. A spatula will lift the cooked fish off its skin onto your plate.

  4. If you like salmon skin, put it in for another toast on its own, but this time watch it, because it's frying itself in there and could burn. If you don't like the skin, toss it out.

I'm not as concise as Mr. King, that's why he makes the big bucks.

Now I'm picturing someone jamming salmon filet into a toaster, thanks for that image 😂

Probably shouldn't use a panini maker either

What else is the salmon setting for?

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

if you need to use the salmon setting on the bread machine, you get a much smoother texture putting it in a food processor inside an oven.

A waffle iron would equally be unwise.

Honestly... I think you could make that work...

[–] nickiwest@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

I did this once as an undergrad when I lived in the dorms. It worked fine for cooking the fish, but that toaster was never the same again. It's really hard to clean the crevices around the crumb tray.

2/10, would not recommend.

More recipes need to specify where I should separate a portion to feed to my cat.

i'ma turn my toaster sideways and let my oppositional defiant disorder win today

[–] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

There are less smelly and messy ways of attracting firemen to your house

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

yeah but if i feed them once they're here they might stay

[–] AngryishHumanoid@lemmynsfw.com 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Film it and put it on YouTube... so we can ALL win.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

This is my lazy quesadilla trick. Nuke with cheese in the microwave until cheese melted, fold in half, put in toaster laying on side. Pops out crispy right onto my plate!

Not as good as when properly made, but quick, no skillet dirty and better than microwaved alone.

Toaster on side also a quick way to reheat slice of cold pizza!

Maybe the first time anyone has accused King of being concise.
