is toasting bread considered cooking? asking for a friend.
was gifted some delicious fishwife conservas from @TheCookie.
paired the fishwife x fly by jing smoked salmon chili crisp with some toasted @losnooyado soba sourdough bread.
a bit smoky, spicy, fatty, not much crisp, but still so good. thanks again @TheCookie, thanks.

Hi @PorkyBelly
Yah, we’ll call it cooking. Impressive the way you got a big hunk neatly out of the can without it falling apart.
Glad you enjoyed! Thanks.

Eclipse tri tip
Used the rubs we picked up from Franklin’s during our autumn trip to TX.
Smoked for 2 hours and wrapped in foil to rest for 1.5 hours.
The bark has a nice hit of heat, and we opened up a bottle of Franklin’s original BBQ sauce.

What amazing dishes!!! Can you please share your recipe/technique for the Tumeric Cod. It’s one of my absolute favorite dishes.

I used 3 recipes I found on google as a reference:
Few things I’ve learned/adjusted from these recipes:
- 3 tablespoons of fish sauce per 1 pound of fish - I used trader joes cod for this since it was convenient/I was already picking things up
- I had galangal around so I used it as recommended by ravenous couple
- Microplane the garlic, shallots, and galangal - good way to express the aromatics (also easy and lazy). If you want chunks, food processor/knife is great too
- I’ve found 1-2 hours to be an appropriate time to marinate - any longer and you cure the fish and make the texture a little more dense (not necessarily a bad thing, but can be an unintentional consequence if it’s not to your taste). Any less and the fish may be bland
- I would recommend a nonstick pan - if you’re using fish with skin, i think skin side down for 90% of the cook would be fantastic on any pan
- If you’re worried about stickage, I often reserve a portion of onions and green onions to make a base layer/bed to deeply caramelize and minimize the contact points of the fish. This is avoided with a properly seasoned pan/non-stick though
- a touch of brown sugar is also nice since it helps with color & caramelization
- i prefer 2 teaspoons of turmeric instead of 1 teaspoon
- sliced sweet onions is really nice - good contrast and pop that you won’t get from exclusively green onions
Bonus Recipe:
If I have an excess of dill ($1 for a large tray at 99 ranch) and green onions, but for some reason don’t have vermicelli, I’ll make a turmeric fish sandwich
Greek Yogurt Ranch (Makes 1 Deli Container 32oz)
- 16 oz (half a container) of Non-Fat Greek Yogurt
- 4 oz of mayonaise (adding fat in, hence why going non-fat greek yogurt)
- 4 oz of thinly chopped green onions (1 bunch of green onions)
- 3 oz of coarsely chopped dill, including stems.
- (optional) 3 oz of coarsely chopped italian parsely (a nod to Houston’s/Hillstone coleslaw)
- 1 tablespoon of coarsely ground black pepper
- the zest and juice of 1 lemon
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 tablespoons fish sauce
- 1 tablespoon of chinese hot mustard powder (adjust to taste, also a nod to Houston’s/Hillstone cole slaw)
- 1-2 garlic gloves, grated
I’m estimating all these measurements, but I feel like this is right! Haven’t actually measured it accurately myself. I typically keep this in my fridge since it’s super versatile - can eat with roasted veg, use as dressing, great with grilled middle eastern spiced meat too
Cha Ca Turmeric Fish sandwich
- cooked turmeric fish
- caramelized onions, scallions, and dill
- greek yogurt ranch
- brioche bun/potato roll/sausage roll, toasted
- vietnamese herbs
- raw/pickled onions
- I haven’t tried this yet, but will next time - some chunky peanut butter on the opposite side of the ranch
