salmon

after a sad run of cooking uneatable chicken at home, I did a 1-hour honey garlic marinade with two salmon fillets and baked them, and my mind was blown. the best fish imo, and i always feel like my heart health is being improved with each bite (thank you omega-3 fatty acids!!!!

Cure your own lox

The price of cured salmon is as bad as gas. Let’s do it for cheap and w our own flavor profiles. It’s like really fucking easy and no work at all. 1 slab of salmon (skin on or off who cares) Equal parts sea salt and brown sugar 1:1 ratio is important you can choose how much you wanna mix up. An assortment of herbs. I like to use the following: Cayenne pepper Fresh ground rosemary Fresh ground thyme Garlic powder Black pepper Truffle salt Crushed red peppers Zest of a lemon Zest of two limes Zest of three clementines Cinnamon Allspice If you decide to keep the skin on your salmon, score the skin. This means cut long slits diagonally in the skin so that the pink meat is exposed. Don’t cut so deep that you open the other side. Mix ALL your herbs together In your salt:sugar ratio TASTE YOUR BLEND BEFORE IT GOES ON YOUR SALMON. IS IT MISSING SOMETHING? IS IT JUST RIGHT? ARE THE HERBS POPPIN? Ok good. Now you’re gonna rinse that salmon slab in water and pat her dry. Two paths here: 1. You’re gonna place that salmon on a piece of plastic wrap that is on a cookie sheet. You’re going to start covering your slab in your seasoning mix, pretend like you’re at the beach and you’re covering up your sibling in sand. Once that side is covered you’re gonna flip her over and do the other side and then you’re going to wrap that mf in that plastic wrap nice and tight so that NO seasoning or salmon is leaking out. 2. You’re gonna grab a large freezer ziploc bag and put your salmon in it. From there, you will be pouring your seasoning mixture in the freezer bag covering the entire piece of fish until you can’t see it anymore. Keep that cookie sheet handy still Bc that ziploc bag is going right on that sheet. After you’ve chosen your path, you will place the cookie sheet in your fridge w a heavy cutting board on top, pressing the salmon. If you need more weight I recommend adding some canned goods on top or more veggies that are in the fridge (maybe a Tupperware container too) Sit in your fridge for AT LEAST 24 hours. If you do this before bed, flip the salmon over the next morning and let cure for like another 8 hours. When that 24 hours is up, there will be liquid, that’s normal. Scrape all that seasoning off, scrape as much as YOU want off. This is your recipe, babe. Slice up and enjoy w a bagel, on deviled eggs, a piece of avo toast like…whatEVER the heart desires. Please keep in mind that the longer you cure the more jerky like it will become. This means super TOUGH and SALTY. If you had skin on your salmon, slice that off and use it however you want. I like to cut it in longer strips, put it over the stove till it gets semi crispy and wrap it around rice. It’s ok if there’s still some salmon meat attached. That adds to the flavor. Happy cooking, you just saved about 30 bucks and you can have lox for more than two bagels ❤️

you are more interesting than you think

It’s incredible how many people genuinely think they are boring. There have been so many times I’ve spoken with people and they confess that they think that they haven’t done much with their life, or that they don’t have much interesting to talk about, but it’s almost never the case. From what I can tell, it’s often caused by a lack of knowing thyself. Or maybe a low self esteem? I’ve been through it too, and it is so so not true for anyone. You’ve done so much living. Why do you feel like your story is not worth telling? I know you’ve gone through some crazy shit once or twice. if you really haven’t, what’s stopping you from getting out there and creating stories to talk about? Start small! go to a coffee shop once a week. See if they have any clubs to join, and try that out! you’ll be making memories in NO TIME. If you have trouble finding meaningful/fun conversation, just remember that the effort must flow both ways. You are merely just working with what the other person is providing you, and if they aren’t giving you anything to work with, it’s not your fault. You aren’t boring, you are just around people who dont vibe with you. And that’s okay! Not every person is going to be your specific kind of person. Plus, if you aren’t having fun talking to them, why does it matter if they like you? the much cooler people who value your input are just around the corner. I promise. One day you’ll be able to shine your beautiful personality on someone who is equally as bright you are, you magnificent comet, you.
