Sweet Sweet Salmon, and you get to play with fire!


Salmon is everywhere. Torch guns however are not. Thankfully the Husband owns many odd tools/weapons. This actually came about because ( which I choose to believe is on purpose aside from laziness?)he constantly decides to leave this potentially, highly dangerous "toy" lying around. Its very versatile. So instead of waiting for one of my kids to burn down the house with it, I figured I'd put it to use that would beneift all of us, not get us all on the 6 o-clock news!!!


Salmon fillet ( I get 4 or 1 large and cut into 4) appx. $8
Glaze:
1/3 c. soy sauce $0.75
1 tbsp white wine vinegar*
2 tbsp brown sugar*
1 clove minced garlic $0.30
1/2 tsp garlic salt*

Butter:
3 tbsp butter or margerine*
1 clove minced garlic $0.30
1 dash pepper*
2 tsp lemon juice*

Drizzle salmon with some olive oil. Bake salmon fillets at 375 for 15 mts on top a sheet of parchment paper on baking sheet. while baking, add glaze ingredients together in sauce pot, bring to boil. Brush glaze on to salmon when they finish baking. Then turn the oven onto broil for 5 mts. Once done, remove from oven, place fillets on glass plate and this is where it gets fun. Torch the top til it gets nice and crispy. Immeadiate top with a dollup of butter mixture. Enjoy.

So 4 steps:
Bake salmon.
boil and brush glaze.
Broil, then torch.
top with butter.
