This awesome. Anyone ever tried this? I might have to give it a whirl… for science. I won’t tell my wife how it was made until she’s finished the meal and unloading the dishwasher.

Please report back your findings, including the wife reaction (the most important part).

(Is "Tom Scott Did It" going to be the new "Simpsons Did it"?)

These days, sous vide is a much better alternative than the dishwasher, but is fundamentally the same concept.

It's worth a try - precision cooking is a way for anyone to have excellent results when cooking. Pretty soon you'll have an immersion circulator, a therma-pen, and a kitchen scale!

I think I learned about this from the TV show Home Improvement in the Tool Time segment.

My grandmother used to do this as kind of a party trick. Still think it's kind of crazy though.

Ha! It's sous vide salmon from before there was sous vide.

Funny to think about now, but it's surprisingly clever. The dishwasher just so happens to be about the right temperature and time for salmon specifically.

I just use the dryer.

I use duct tape to keep it all together.

Originating in the United States, Vincent Price demonstrated preparation of fish in 1975 when appearing at The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. Price presented the dish as "a dish any fool can prepare".

Apropos of nothing, Vincent Price only played bad guys because he was such a nice guy that playing nice guys wasn't acting in his mind.

Edit: Wikipedia describes him as an American actor, art historian, art collector, and gourmet cook.
