Cooking fish

[Adios]

IN THE DISHWASHER.

Who has a proven recipe for this?

I've never heard of it, but it's hilarious! It would totally mindfuck my kids. I'm going to try it.

ECH is probably going to have my ass for this thread.

nothing proven, but I guess you'd just wrap it up real tight with some herbs and put it in?

sounds like it would turn out a littlebit like sous-vide, except without the temperature control.

fish generally already cooks at 113F or so (I forgot the exact temp, it was way less than beef or pork), the dishwasher easily gets to that temp.

just remember from my soud-vide thread, that any herbs or spices come out a lot stronger, because none of the liquid in the package gets lost. I found this especially true for black pepper.

just wrap it up air and water tight. also be sure no air is in the bag, because it will expand and bubble. maybe in the case of dishwasher even use a double bag, just to be sure that no detergent stuff gets in.

oh reading that site, it says no detergent. Where's the fun in that if you don't cook the salmon during a regular dishwashing with the dirty dishes?

(it'd also be a bit wasteful of energy and water, but that's just me)

This looks like a good place to start: http://www.winexmagazine.com/index.php/wine/vieweat/dishwasher-salmon/

If you regularly suffer from constipation detergent is a good thing to add.

I somehow have the feeling that dishwasher tablets are a bit more aggressive stuff than your average liquid hand dishwashing detergent.

But then, it might just be concentrated.

Anyway, I think I'm going to try this as well, some time!

You need to make loads to make it more energy efficient.

The beauty of it is the entire house doesn't end up smelling like fish afterwards.

[Sir Squid Diddimus]

just your entire dishes afterward?

I don't know about cooking fish in the dishwasher, but I've definitely cooked it on a car engine (while in motion) before. I'm all for experimenting with ways to cook things, I just don't expect that all of them will be wonderful.

that's another thing I will try some day.

I have heated up canned stuff on an engine block but never cooked fish on one.
