I pretty much used this recipe but:

  • I grilled the salmon on the gas grill (7min each side, bit too much, but my guests weren't big on it being undercooked).

  • I used fish stock.

  • I used coconut cream but not sure if that's actually different from milk.

  • cornstarch over arrowroot/tapioca.

  • Used "plant butter" (isn't that just margarine?) instead of olive oil.

Asparagus was just in the oven for 12min and potatoes for like 30/45min, simple "infused" olive oil and S&P.

I just saw a tiktok where a chef says he only ever cooks fish on one side. He lays the filet down in a greased pan, sears it, melts a SHITTON of butter and then kind of sautees the pan so the butter keeps washing over the fish. It's plated seared side up and looked really good

do you have the link? I tried this "method" (?) of getting it really dry then throwing it on high heat and it turned out nicely.

I think I have a hard time with not burning butter at high heat :marseyhmm:

I think he used medium temp, the pan was off the flame for a lot of it

I cant find the actual video again :marseycry:

You can also lift the pan off the flame, you do like 20% on the flame and 80% off and keep moving it back and forth

It seemed like an incredible effort but also really tasty

It's just butter basting like you would a steak I think.

butter won't burn off as quickly if you use a lot of it lol. just lower temps or take it off the heat. personally high temps are kinda wasteful and smokey outside a professional kitchen, medium high works just fine

I think I just need to continue cooking to really get a feel for temperatures. I seem to either burn butter or it takes 30 minutes to cook something thoroughly.

You should try that with a thinner fillet, it's very nice and gives it a deepfrying-like golden crust.

If you have some aromatic herbs to throw into the butter like a twig of rosemary, that's even better

It is fattier like it sounds like? That's why I got it, most recipes called for actual cream.
