Q: How many dishes can you serve with a whole salmon?
One day, my friend surprised me with a whole ~1.5 kg wild salmon. If only a camera had captured my expression. One part of me was in complete awe at the possibility of seeing such a large whole fish in England. Another part of me was swooning and caressing the beautiful silvery skin and pink flesh. Then came: what should we do with it?
Sashimi came to mind immediately, but as we didn't know how it was prepared after its capture, raw consumption was too risky. Instead, we made the following dishes:
Needless to say, we wasted nothing. We probably could have eaten the bones, had we fried them.
In any case, we were salmon happy for several days. The only shame is the lack of photos. I guess we were too hungry and excited to bother!
