The fish counter guy looked at me like I was a little crazy when I bought a 4 pound slab of salmon

He was probably right, because I’m cooking that slab of salmon on my Presto griddle that doesn’t quite fit on my counter, at 10:30 at night. Yeah, he was right.

Why cook salmon on a Presto griddle? Two reasons:

1. It fits.

2. Nice even heat gets you beautiful crispy skin without a ton of oil.

Mmmm...

That’s a lot of fish. You expecting a family of bears for supper?

I don’t like salmon, but I stumbled across this easy recipe for grilled salmon with key lime butter and made it for friends. They raved about it. Apparently simple is best.

What’s that rub you put on it?

Meal planning for me and my wife. Cook a bunch now, warm it up in our fancy toaster oven throughout the week.

Ever made salmon patties? Use a food processor and grind up salmon, quinoa, feta, a bit of egg, and kale. Cook them like a latka and eat them whenever. Throw some sriracha or wasabi on them if that’s your thing.

Put it in a smoker, and I be all over it. We just started cold smoking salmon at work, and it is amazing.

Salt, pepper, garlic powder, coriander and Old Bay. Kinda sounds like a lot but it’s just a light sprinkle of each.

I LOOOOVE salmon, for about four bites. And then I don’t want it again for about a month. This photo is nauseating (the individual dinner looks great though!)

1) must be wild caught Pacific or Alaskan, otherwise it’s “farm bred” that’s been fed dog food and injected with dye.

2) cook on the bbq, on a cedar plank

I did that, buy the whole side of the salmon once, for a dinner party I was hosting. The guy at the store asked me which piece I would like. I said the big one. He started grabbing the largest cut piece from the display. I stopped him and said “No, the BIG one.” He thought I was crazy. He had problems weighing and wrapping it.

Salmon heated in the toaster oven is da bomb. When we have salmon for supper, I always overbuy for just that reason.

1. Note the not-neon-orange hue of this particular salmon.

2. You must be real fun at parties.

I realize I am late to this post, but I just wanted to chime in that Presto griddles are the best.
