How to Pan Sear Salmon

[@jinsgy2598]

It's been 6 months now, I haven't moved the fish yet, still perfecting that crust.

Excellent video. Brief, calm, simple, and detailed. No fluff. Wish all KZbin lessons were like this.

[@shannonbroughton732]

As someone who has always oven baked salmon, this looks like a rather easy and efficient way to prepare it on the stove. I'm gonna give it a shot today!

[@ajaxc33]

That came out beautifully! It looks like its commercial ready. Never knew how to cook salmon, since I'm a tilapia girl. Will try for dinner with a bed of rice. Yum.

[@TM-fr7gh]

This was a great help, turned out perfect. One of the best salmons I've ever had.

[@KharaokeTube]

I tried this and cooked the best salmon ever! Thank you for helping me to improve my techniques!

[@Yusufsanad]

What a beautiful work As a chef this is by far the best work I've seen on a salmon

[@SucessKey]

Thank you for a straight-forward baking salmon 101. Dinner tonight may just be a success.

[@AAdams-rm5vz]

Thanks for posting this, we are missing our favorite restaurants during the Covid shutdown, and this allowed me to recreate a favorite . It came out perfect.

[@ShoaibKhanZ]

I tried this, and it came out perfectly. And not to move the fish is key to have the perfect crust! Thank you chef!

[@escoffieronline]

+Shoaib Khan thank you! Don't forget to check out our online programs as well: www.escoffieronline.com/programs/

[@Pizkwat1]

I just tried cooking salmon for the first time ever, and this video was extremely helpful. It's so straightforward and tasty! Thanks a lot!

[@TH-qt5gb]

People in the comments saying a 3 Michelin star chef doesnt know what he's doing

[@deejay8403]

They do it because it makes them feel better about themselves. And I bet none of them have the nerve to make a video themselves.

[@adanechdesta2752]

Yeah

[@seasons0123]

Nummy! Did it the same way though used a little butter and olive oil... added salt, garlic, onion powder... very good. Though ours were very very thin. So they got over done. Lovely though... I learned something knew today about the crust. Also watched the chef's show on tv about him and his restaurant and life. He's made it a long way. Good job!!

[@165vally]

You should also learn the difference between "knew" and "new"

[@uncjim]

Been doing it on the outdoor grill for years with a basting sauce. I had it recently from a restaurant with that beautiful crust. Now I know how they did it! Thank you. I tried it and it was perfect.

[@USMC_BABE38]

This was so helpful for someone who has never cooked salmon before I watched this video while I was cooking salmon

[@Joani570]

Absolutely delicious. Restaurant quality. Made me look like a pro; I even impressed myself. I made a pinot noir sauce but because the salmon was so well seasoned - I didn't bother. Why mess with perfection. Thank you so much!

[@simplecookingwithjobay4356]

Nice video..pan seared salmon, pan seared tuna, pan seared blue marlin are incredibly delicious...its my favorite...quick & easy recipes.

[@momokokochuchuchu]

im convinced that cooks have no heat nerves left in their fingertips cause i always see my mom and other cooks touching food that looks really hot but not being burned

[@assordante2205]

momokokochuchuchu after so long cooking, you know when when it's too hot based on how hot the pan is, how long the foods been cooking, etc. It's still hot but you have a feel for when it's safe to touch or not.

[@tonmelissa7900]

Funny my mom used to always flip tortillas on the stove while practically touching the flame. Years later and after having worked in restaurants I'll pick up anything straight off the grill (with gloves of course)

[@sednonsatia]

He was touching the raw part of the fish so it won't be that hot.

[@Beevreeter]

Frying fish like this in a little butter AND oil mix (but only about a teaspoon in total) really adds to the flavour - (the oil stops the butter burning) - and not too hot, which gives you more control over the progress. Using a good non-stick pan is also essential. Just my experience and two-cents worth ☺

[@TheLicewine]

I like how he points out kitchen safety. Also, he has the panhandles pointing inwards for additional safety. Good job!

[@sherryt6618]

You sir, know how to develop the perfect crust. Beautiful, I'm gonna cook salmon tomorrow for dinner, so thank you for the tips.

[@brandonalulema1886]

[@loutrioti8375]

[@a.barnard3205]

There is "perfect crust" and then there is WAY overdone Salmon....

[@ronaldwashington5882]

Yes

[@memyselfimemyselfi496]

Super cute profile picture 🙂

[@catsarereallycool]

This exactly what I needed. Thank you.

[@a.paigewhaley4333]

I watch your video and promptly went to the kitchen and made it. I used coconut oil to cook it in. The fish tasted buttery & lightly crisp on the outside. It was absolutely delicious! Thanks so much!

[@escoffieronline]

You're welcome!

[@sudhamanohar2382]

Simple and very good way of cooking! thanks

[@Joani570]

I made this again last night for my - salmon-hating - friend. Not only could he not get enough of it, he asked me what the "coating" was. He was astounded when I said: Salt (and I added pepper). I'm telling you....this salmon is not only perfect...but it's heaven and so quick. Thank you again! (Served with Ina Garten's garlic roasted potatoes as well as roasted tomatoes.)

[@phoebekane3093]

MUCH TOO SALTY FOR US!

[@2dawgsmiked684]

+Phoebe Kane Gee...with all of those ingredients, I can't begin to imagine what the fix for your dilemma could possibly be. Do you not eat toast because THERE'S JUST TOO MUCH DAMNED BREAD! :D

[@cheerups9060]

Great Video. You are my favourite. I am happy you did this video because it has helped me to cook better.

[@bengundran1488]

Excellent job very thorough and very neat.

[@joev178]

Did exactly what you said and it came out perfect thank you

[@fablife6236]

Looks great. Lovely crunchy looking sear. Can't wait to try!

[@escoffieronline]

Fab Life Enjoy!

[@escoffieronline]

The chef is using Kosher salt, which is a coarser salt you can see the grains when applied to the food item. You can also use a coarse sea salt. Chef Cesar

[@eyeswideshut2800]

less sodium by volume since kosher and sea salt are coarser.

[@Mothafuckenzay]

What would you serve it with

[@StreetTruckinTitan]

@@Mothafuckenzay Hard to beat a side of asparagus and a lemon wedge

[@roastedtoast2214]

I always refer to this video when cooking salmon and it comes out perfect every time! ...except tonight. I didnt watch it before cooking. It wasnt bad, or overcooked, but it wasnt as great and after watching again I found my mistake. Thank you for this! I cant hear anything on my phone, but may have watched this once when i could. Still get the gist of the method and it works every time.

[@codyfan1097]

You’re a great teacher 🙏🏻

[@petermaroney3625]

[@donnagambrell1412]

This Looks Absolutely Amazing...Never Seen Salmon Perfected To This Definition.....Loved This Video............Wow!! Keep Up The Good Work/Cooking !!

[@just888another888ide]

Nice....direct and right to the point... my fish cooked perfect. Thanks.

[@lrespin]

Thank you for posting this easy way to cook salmon. I'm not a great cook, so I need help. I especially like your video for the tips you gave in the video, such as the salt forming a crust, and butting up the 2 pieces together to cook the thicker part while not overcooking the thinner part. And most helpful, the hint about placing the fish away from you so as not to get splattered. I'll be preparing this tonight.

[@JorgeDeLaRosaGold]

I follow your details of salmon cook it fantastic thanks chef.

[@CKury]

Great demo, thanks!

[@jackyrukara2697]

This is so simple, thanks

[@escoffieronline]

Frozen Wild caught Salmon is ideal for this preparation. Defrost under refridge only. (not in water)

[@escoffieronline]

You are welcome!

[@beAllbugger]

'don't touch or move the fish'... 'it's good to touch and move the fish to get the feel for it'..

[@billmathers2064]

Contradicts himself there. Id say DO NOT touch it. Especially if you're a "young cook". Shit will fall apart.

[@NakedGhost3234]

I literally tried this tonight myself for the first time ever (I'm a 22 year old that has moved out his parent's house and tried to do what my mum done). I used boiling water instead of oil and yes, I did get scared and moved my fish and 1 block tore in half and made a big square shaped stain on my pan lol tasty though

[@billmathers2064]

Check out "Gordon Ramsay's Plain Salmon Recipe" for some great tips on how to cook, flip etc. I prefer however to remove the skin to make it taste less fishy. Also try marinading it for about 1 hour in a ziplock in the fridge with: 2 T. olive oil, 1 T. melted butter, 3/4 tsp basil, 1/2 tsp salt, 3 T lemon juice, 1 tsp dried parsley, dash of dill weed. I dont add anything to my pan other than the marinaded fish because more liquids will make it less crispy and I love me some nicely browned crispy fish. ALso when it gets some crispy edges it holds together better for the roll/flip. Also take a peek at Ramsay's Steak video

[@BPFDesigns]

What he meant was, don't move it around the pan while it's cooking.

[@TheDims03]

hahahaha ya

[@joydubyadee]

Clear explanation, thanks.

[@shelly7160]

Looks delicious oh and so does the salmon 😉

[@thesimmeringpot2730]

Nice technique!

[@tatamez1]

Gracias por compartir!

[@carysfaerie]

Fantastic

[@escoffieronline]

This is the same technique. Only difference with leaving the skin on is to add a bit more crunch and will make the fish appear to have more of a brown color to it. Many times people leave the skin on to tell what kind of fish it is.

[@laceyrasmussen8728]

This helped me a lot for my first time cooking salmon. Thank you :)

[@deliciousgroove]

Well done!

[@perleth8936]

Looks delicious. But did you cook the potato you filmed the video with?

[@escoffieronline]

Salt should not be used overnight. It will draw out moisture and toughen.

[@memyselfimemyselfi496]

Nice

[@atautkutunaydin135]

Well thats just wrong, firstly it wont toughen the meat. Yes, the salt will draw out moisture via osmosis but it will be reabsorbed in the fridge, thus seasoning the inside. It is also concluded by experiments that it can help with keeping the meat juicy

[@Firekid144]

I think he's saying do not move the fish, but you can touch it to feel it. Nice video.

[@Racingdrum]

this dude knows what's up

[@Kueronez]

"Let's just look at it" :D Lol, great video! I love your tutorials.

[@jakehollendale8373]

Good teacher

[@yzhang333]

good to find out I been doing it the right way for years!

[@de0509]

Thats why the great chef Marco likens cooking to philosophy. When people get that, merely salmon and salt can be turned into something beautiful

[@windella]

Looks beautiful and tasty!

[@ericagoats4610]

I really like Salmon

[@shinny123]

Wow he got the temp. Perfect

[@escoffieronline]

" The white creamy liquid you see if the 'fat' from the salmon, the intramuscular marbling that exudes in the cooking process" All is well. You can remove it by brushing it off and then with olive oil. Cheers Chef Mark

It appears there is some discussion over internal temp of cooked salmon. USDA says 145, cooks say 120-125?
