Caution if you have an American made GE, Frigidaire, or Maytag model. They are all virtually the same. And all have inferior wiring and control boards needed to withstand the extra heat of a "sanitize" wash (the hottest wash)[0]

Salmon is often eaten raw.
Not all salmon species are sashimi-grade. Pacific and various types of river salmon must be properly cooked or hot smoked. The same is true for farmed salmon from freshwater ponds. Farmed Atlantic salmon can be eaten raw, marinated, or cold smoked, but is best deep frozen. Wild Atlantic salmon must be deep frozen.

You should never eat any fish or flesh cooked that you wouldn't eat raw.

My dad once cooked in the engine of the car driving to a lake. Wrapped in foil. Was a veggie burger. They got cooked, haha but they had a very strong cartaste, I kept it with one bite.
there was a whole book of recipies for fookeing on your engine--the title was "Manifold Destiny". I have a copy somewhere, but have never tried it.

Most people in most places don’t have access to fish/meat they can eat totally raw (without any cooking, curing, smoking, etc).
Re: Dishwasher Salmon
#266Great demonstration that the process of cooking is rather general and encompasses more than most people associate with their concept of cooking. Cooking is just applying heat to food. Stovetops, grills, and pans conduct that heat to food using metal; ovens conduct it using air; fryers use oil; sous vide uses water. Each provides increasingly precise temperature control. The dishwasher method uses both water and air a…
How much of cooking is just a chase for tastier food? Up in Eastern Europe everyone is hardcore convinced overcooked meat is healthy because no bacteria plus warm food good for stomach. Tons of people still wince at medium rare steak.

That may not be totally unfounded. More developed countries have tighter livestock regulations. Not saying Eastern European farms or kitchens are "dirty", but there is just less oversight which leads to more opportunities in the swiss-cheese model of disease prevention.

#267When you're too cheap to invest in vacuum sealing and sous vide. Also not to be outshined by coffeemaker rice if you don't enjoy ingesting heavy metals from mostly American-grown rice (soil issue). https://www.instructables.com/Cook-Rice-in-a-Coffee-Maker/
Do people not know you can just cook rice in a microwave? It's my typical method.

> and she worked out that cooking salmon in a dishwasher does not bring it up to a food safe temperature. That video was great! Although I notice she cooks it in a large jar of water. I suspect that it would take a long time to heat up all that water, hence it never reaches 62°C. Whereas if you just wrapped it in foil, it might transfer that heat to the fish much quicker.
Also, its very important to run your sink to full hot temp prior to starting the washer. (in 99% of dishwashers, they pull from the hotwater supply to the kitchen sink. Dishwashers will do a ~15 minute pre-spray (without soap) initial rinse. If you dont pre-warm the sink line, then the dishwasher will start with a cold pre-wash, thus will not put dishes to temp as quickly in the cycle.

That thought popped into my head as well, but I wonder if the raw salmon you get in sushi is fresher or prepared differently to buying it in a supermarket?
Yes, the "raw" fish that you eat without cooking it, is actually first left for a long time in a special freezer that brings it to a very low temperature to kill bacteria and parasites.
It doesn't have to be a long time if it's a special freezer. You can use a regular deep freezer (non-defrosting) for a longer time. I believe the protocol is something like -30F for 1 day, or -5F for 14 days.

Also, IIRC they use a brine/vinegar solution to help kill bacteria.
