This was a viral clickbait thing a few years ago. It only existed on twitter and Facebook and Instagram and thankfully I haven’t seen it turn up again any time recently lol no one actually cooks like this, even here in America
This was a fad in the early 1990s. I know a few people who tried it. I don’t know anyone who did it twice as it tends to require you to clean your dishwasher before and afterwards.
It was on an episode of Home Improvement. Not sure if the show started it or if it was just referencing the existing fad.
lPossibly referencing the fad depending on how early it aired. The show was on before I learned about dishwasher salmon.
Well, there’s also this.
I believe Maytag once ran a commercial back in the '60s or '70s or something that implied you could cook a turkey in their dishwasher as well, boasting how powerful their heating element was for the dry cycle.
I should also point out at this juncture that an awful lot of dishwashers these days including almost all import brands (Bosch in particular, also LG, Samsung, Asko, Miele, Smeg, etc.) are “condenser dry” machines and don’t have the heating element for drying anymore. You’re unlikely to cook anything satisfactorily in one of those. You could hope for the wash water being hot enough to do it, but I’m not playing any bets. Maybe you ought to select the sanitize rinse option…
If you were going for low and slow, you could pipe in melted butter and have a self basting semi sous vide thing going.
Redneck sous vide.
An older guy said sometimes people would season and bag steaks and keep them submerged in hot tubs in the 80s.
Do not let the americans cook.
A serving of green bean casserole
Bone ape tit bro
Yeah I’m just gonna say it, that looks fucking delicious, S-tier side dish
It is fucking delicious. And easy as shit to make too. It’s got like 4 ingredients and takes 30 mins start to finish. My family used to eat this a lot when i was growing up because we were poor and busy and this is cheap and easy. But its one of the “poor people” foods im most nostalgic about
Ingredients
- 1 can of cream of mushroom
- 1/2 milk
- 4 cups green beans (they don’t have to be fresh, canned or frozen can work too)
- French Onions
Cooking
- Mix everything into a pan (except the onions) and cook at 350f for 25 mins
- Sprinkle French Onions on top
- Cook for another 5 minutes
If you want to get really fancy you can sprinkle some shredded cheese on top after it cooks (I like Parmesan (but only the saw dust stuff in the tube), or sharp cheddar). It also makes great leftovers because it microwaves really well, and can be frozen and thawed with no issue.
For non-unitedstatesians: “French Onions” does not refer to the nationalty of the alliums, or the manner in which they’re cooked. It is a specific product:
And you gotta use these ones for casserole. Its in the constitution or something
It’s definitely also the name of the manner in which they’re cooked though, at least regionally here in the US.
My point is it’s not that. It’s the can.
Just because they’re not called French’s French Fried Onions doesn’t mean they aren’t French fried onions.
You can pass that my way if you’re not going to eat it, easily my favorite thanksgiving side dish.
how to substitute the cum glazing in the recepie? i don’t have any
Are you so deprived you don’t know what cream of mushroom soup looks like?
i don’t like mushrooms
Use cream of celery or cream of chicken even.
Never was a fan of any kind of beans.
How do you feel about jeans.
Quite like em
Existing off of nothing but government subsidized dead animals is a nice life.
Huh?
We let the dishwashers do it for us
I can’t believe this is a real article. It looks like a parody.
I mean I’ve cooked entire meals in the engine bay of a car before 🤷
In case it isn’t obvious to everyone, the salmon wouldn’t be up to temp. It might look “cooked” but its internal temperature physically cannot rise high enough to kill all of the microbes dwelling within. Before putting it in the dishwasher, I recommend poaching it in a vinegar solution to dissuade anyone from eating it.
I’m imagining the shits the dishwasher detergent residues give you would be brutal
You just reminded me that the tide pod challenge existed. What a terrifically stupid way to die
If it’s held at a slightly lower temp for longer it can achieve the same bacterial reduction the 145F the usda recommends, its the instant bacterial death time. Inctheory if held at temp for long enough it would be safe to eat. It’s still a stupid method but technically viable.
You’d need to wash it at least twice, maybe three times. But then it loses its only advantage, ambient cooking with your dishes, and gains a disadvantage, running your dishwasher twice or thrice to clean off the fresh fish biome that has seeped out onto the dishes below your fish
Oh yeah I’m saying it’s technically viable, not that it’s actually any good. Also if the fish is wrapped properly then it shouldn’t be leaking fish juices onto the plates.
I’ve lost my faith in humanity, so I wanted to make it perfectly clear why one should avoid doing this. Just a touch of childproofing, I wasn’t trying to disagree with you
Oh good, now I can stop using the top of my good ol’ 1970s TV. As a bonus, maybe my wife will stop mentioning the smell.
Protip: If you suggest the fish smell is coming from her you won’t have to worry about it anymore.
Please say sike 🤢
Don’t let Americans cook means you don’t know about actual American food like gumbo, sausage gravy, chili, or tri tip (among dozens of other dishes). It’s a sad, bland world without American food.
My dad once made a homemade smoker out of an old dishwasher, and smoked salmon was one of the dishes we cooked in it!
This seems possible but energy inefficiency. Cooking fish is really easy. Seems unnecessary.
