Confit salmon

Confiting fish is an old tradition for preserving fish using salt, fat and low temperature. Other types of fish besides salmon can be used for this recipe.

Confit salmon

Approach

  1. 1

    Sprinkle a little salt on the salmon fillets and let it sit with the salt for 15-20 minutes.

  2. 2

    Add herbs and garlic cloves to the oil and heat it to 50-60 degrees in a pot. Place the fish in the oil, or place the fish in an ovenproof dish and pour the oil over it.

  3. 3

    Keep the oil warm, ideally place it in a preheated oven at about 60 degrees, and let the fish sit until it's heated through. This takes anywhere from 5-10 minutes.

  4. 4

    The fish can be stored in the oil if it's not going to be served right away, but take it off/out of the heat.
