Dishwasher Poached Salmon a la Ruth

Salmon recipe with a strange cooking method courtesy of Ruth from San Diego, California.

Recipe Information:

Serves:	Salmon Portion	Course	Cooking Method	Preparation Time:
3 - 4	Smoked Salmon, Fresh Salmon, Whole	Main, Snack	Poach, Steam, Other	30 mins to 1 hour

Ingredients:

One whole cleaned Salmon, with head and tail left on.

Method:

Using sea salt, and pepper, season the inside of the cavity. Fill with sliced citrus fruits: orange, lemon and limes. Squeeze some of the juice over the Salmon. Wrap Salmon in very heavy duty foil twice, or even three times. Place on the top rack of the dishwasher (heat rises) and place the dishwasher on the pots and pans cycle. Let the dishwasher go once around on the pots and pans cycle for fish up to 3/4 lbs; twice around for anything bigger. Just unwrap and look, or test with a fork! It takes approximately 45 minutes to poach, and the dry heat finishes it off.

Serve on a platter with field greens and flowers (one on his eye) at room temperature. No pans to scrub!
