    Salmon and pesto sound like a winner.
    At home, we do not use pesto but spinachs, a white rice and heated fresh cream mixed with a bit of lemon juice as a sauce.
    But we will certainly give a shot to pesto.

    Wonderful! I sometimes do something similar with salmon, but I'll give the butter only 5-10 seconds so it's softened, not broken/melted, then mash things into it (pesto, garlic, lemon zest, honey, spices, herbs, anything you want within reason) and spread it on the salmon either before baking/air frying or after an initial few minutes. I haven't tried the method in this video where you cook the salmon to your liking and then top with a melted butter mixture but I love how easy it is, will have to give it a shot 😊

    Everybody in awe of what this guy did but he literally just undercooked a salmon in the oven, used store bought pesto and added butter to it and then put it on the undercooked salmon. This looks like college dorm room cooking to me lol

    • @pauloamw
      @pauloamw 9 днів тому +1

      First, no one wants overcooked salmon, especially not him nor his wife as he very often says. Second, this is home cooking, done well, it can beat a lot of restaurants if you learn what he is teaching. Third, you must come from culinary college if salmon and pesto is your idea of dorm cooking 😂.
