    01:10 Recipe
    06:26 Broiler Troubleshooting
    Notes about salmon: you need a fatty salmon for this dish. Farm-raised works best, but king salmon (also known as chinook) also works. Although we aren’t eating the skin in this dish, it’s important that you get a salmon fillet with the skin to insulate it during cooking and protect the bottom from overcooking.
    20g apricot preserves (4 tsp)
    8g balsamic vinegar (1.5 tsp)
    20g tamari style soy sauce (4 tsp)
    1.5 Lb (680g) skin-on, boneless thick salmon fillet
    Salt and pepper to taste
    Set a rack as close to the broiling element as possible and another one in the bottom third of the oven. Preheat the oven to 350F (180C).
    In a small bowl, whisk together the apricot preserves, vinegar, and soy sauce. Place the salmon on a shallow metal baking sheet lined with foil. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Spoon just enough glaze to cover the top of the salmon. Avoid puddles.
    Turn on the broiler and place an inverted pan on the rack if you need to get closer to the broiler element. Place the salmon under the broiler until the belly browns, about 4 min. Cover the belly with foil, add a bit more glaze to the thick part of the fillet and continue to broil until the entire salmon is brown, another 1-2 minutes.
    Remove the foil that’s covering the belly. Cut off the belly and remove to a plate by sliding the spatula between the skin and the flesh. Turn down the oven to 350F (180C). Pour the remaining sauce over the the thick part of the salmon and cook in the bottom third of the oven until the flakes separate, but are still translucent in the center. This will take 4-9 minutes, but it’s good to check very frequently. Put the belly back in the pan with salmon and cool to room temperature, about an hour. Cover and refrigerate for at least 5 hours or ideally overnight. Will last in the fridge for 2 days.

    • @CopenhagenDreaming
      @CopenhagenDreaming 2 роки тому +6

      I'm not a vegetarian myself, but: I could imagine this glaze, with the acidity and the sweetness and the saltiness, being quite a good marinade and glaze for grilled tofu! Or large barbecued mushrooms. Or possibly some sort of meat substitute product if you enjoy those.
      (I'd gladly eat all of the above, though perhaps hot, rather than cold.)

      Similarly, I ran into the exquisite, divine Valentina Lisitsa, on a London street, few years ago. She was going into a food store. I too thought, it couldn't possibly, possibly be.
      But it was. I did speak with her and she generously, let me capture a few photos, and a couple of them, with us together.
      She asked me to wait a mo. And went back to her hotel and most generously, fetched me a copy of her cd, playing Chopin. Years later, that lovely encounter still makes me swell and swoon with happiness. Valentina Lisitsa 👑 Empress of the Universe. 😷🌈

    I love to cook and constantly make recipes I see on youtube. You are probably the only chef that I have yet to find a bad recipe from. I have made 5 of your recipes so far and each time they are absolutely spectacular.
    I have a bit of a request, I grew up in Boston whereas you know you can easily find incredible Italian bakeries. I'm currently living in Mexico where that is not the case and I've had the largest craving for cannolis for months. I've tried to make them from a well-rated recipe and they were simply put not great. Would you consider making a video on how to make amazing cannolis?
    In any case, thank you for your amazing content. I will continue to make and enjoy your recipes!

      I was so confused by this concept, until I remembered, that old fashioned charcoal grills basically work the same - with the heat source on the bottom.
      How do you not end up with your broiler a mess, though? Or even fat drippings catching fire?

    Two problems as I am aware. Many people can’t use soy anything. 1. Is genetically altered and treated with pesticides. , 2. is an estrogen based plant. It can cause increase in cancer growth. Ex: I have had breast cancer and now prescribed a very, very expensive drug to eliminate all estrogen out of my body. Ex: soy and flaxseed. You obviously didn’t know, but my suggestion is to offer alternatives. Would coconut aminos work.Maybe a touch of balsamic vinegar? I am a fan, and wish you well.

    Do you usually just toss the skin or is there some way it can be salvaged? Do you always test for doneness with the "pull apart" opposed to a thermometer?

    • @atlf3357
      @atlf3357 2 роки тому +4

      The skin definitely can and should be salvaged, it’s delicious and full of nutrients. I saw a video where the skin was seasoned then fried/air fried until crispy and golden, then served as a textural and decorative component to the salmon dish. I tried it and it was delicious!

    • @helenrennie
      @helenrennie  2 роки тому +4

      Personally, I don't use the skin. Although what Kai suggested would probably be delicious, the hassle of frying wouldn't be worth it to me. Also keep in mind that the skin would likely get stuck to the foil. If you want to use it, oil skin before placing it on the foil, but there is no guarantee that it will come off nicely. I find that the pull apart test is easier for me than a thermometer for most fish because their thickness is not even and because different fish taste best at different temperatures.

    This looks delicious! What do you think of making a double-batch of the apricot glaze and, right before you put the salmon in the fridge you basically immerse the fish in the glaze? Would that impart more flavor? Would soaking the cooked salmon in that liquid change the texture of the final dish?

    • @atlf3357
      @atlf3357 2 роки тому +6

      It honestly depends on the farm’s location and certification. A significant percentage of salmon farms are well maintained and in good condition due to the introduction of lumpsucker fish as a natural method of parasite control. The fish are perfectly healthy to eat (though of course, will not be comparable to wild salmon). However, a lot of farms are relatively unethical and in poor condition, and that is reflected by the poor quality of fish. My advice is to look for ASC (Aquaculture Stewardship Council) certification on the packaging when buying farmed fish.

    How to have the salmon fillet the same thickness for cooking and look absolutely beautiful.
    Book-match the fillet. Cut 3" off the end of the fillet then bisect the piece with a score through the meat but NOT through the skin/scales. Fold the piece along the score and the result is a consistent 1.5" thick piece that is perfectly book-matched (veining is symmetric along the fold).
    Enjoy a consistently cooked salmon that looks perfect for the thumbnail :)

The government doesn’t want to contaminate wild salmon populations. Also if you ever have wild cold water NW salmon you know the difference and would never buy farmed again. Granted in class case it look nice But beware for health sake. Huge difference on several levels. Still a fan.
