I like salmon, so the moment I realized that it could be cooked sous vide style I wanted to try it. The salmon I found would probably make any person who lives by the coast weep tears of sympathy, but it was good enough. To season it I added dill, lemon, cayenne pepper, and of course salt and black pepper.
With aid from the temperature calculator that comes with the app for the device we got, I decided to set it at 125°F for about thirty minutes. My phone wasn't linked to the device, so I set it up directly from its interface and aptly succeeded in not setting the timer correctly. But when it's cooked this way, a little extra time really doesn't make any difference.
Notice that I'm not using bobby pins. Melanie found some clips she had at work that we could use, and they are a lot easier to deal with.
In the end I think it went well. The texture was spot on, but I should have added more seasonings - definitely more salt than I had. All in all it was a good meal that was really easy to prepare. As a bonus, Melanie who is usually hesitant about seafood, really enjoyed it.
