zalm sous vide

Who doesn't know it? Salmon. The pink and flavorful fish. Many people are familiar with the fact that almost all fish, including salmon, quickly overcooks. This mainly happens in the oven, where the fish is exposed to temperatures above 100°C. This temperature is too high for fish. This is not the case with sous vide cooking of salmon. Here, the fish is not exposed to high temperatures. As a result, it never dries out. With this technique, the salmon is cooked sous vide in a water bath at 50°C.

Salmon can be used in a variety of dishes. Think, for example, of pasta tagliatelle with pesto. Or a creamy and spicy risotto with green asparagus. Or between toasted sandwiches with fresh mayonnaise. How do you like this salmon best?

Hi Kees, wellicht kan je proberen om vlak voor het serveren van de zalm de buitenkant te branden met een gasbrander of crème brulee brander. Hiermee geef je de zalm zowel een ‘krokante’ korst en stijgt de temperatuur waardoor hij warmer wordt.
