I usually eat Salmon for lunch due to my intestinal surgeries. its soft, easy to digest and tastes pretty good. I use several seasonings, not all at once but usually I use;

1 or 2 salmon fillet sections

 

1. Cedar Plank salmon seasoning & garlic salt (to taste). But I use a light sprinkling of it

and/or

2. fine or coarse ground malabar black pepper

and/or

3. Onion and Herb Mrs. Dash (non salt seasoning)

and/or

4. Lawry's California season salt.

 

I bake it for about 15-20 minutes in an oven or 25-30 in my special cooker to get a nice crisp edge. I'll try to post a picture ASAP of my seasonings.

Trick: take kosher salt and liberally cover with salt on both sides. refrigerate 1 hour for every inch of thickness ( 1.5 inches = 1.5 hours). wash off salt and cook to desired style. salt will tenderize the steak and if you do this to even the WORST cut of beef, it will turn out like the best cut of beef. the salt breaks down the proteins and takes away the toughness in bad cuts of beef. (you can use this technique on ANY cut of beef)

Ha!, that looks a lot easier on the stomach :laugh:

I also drank this with it, rather than a nice glass of sauvignon blanc

Darkside noob, tbh.

I've been trying random bottles here and there over the last year, and they have always gone down pretty well.

This stuff was particularly nice, actually. I even went back and got some more :) 

P.S. Can't edit my first post, but it's supposed to be 300ml of water, not 3 pints. Not that I'm actually offering up genuine cooking instructions for instant noodles. :rofl:

Pan Seared Oven Roasted Pork Loin Roast

 

Pat roast dry and season with whatever dry spices you prefer, let sit at least a couple of hours (overnight is better) in the fridge in a air tight container. I like McCormick Grill Mates Roasted Garlic & Herb Seasoning

Also I use about half of a whole loin roast (about 8-10”)

Preheat oven to 300 degrees

Heat about a Tbl spoon of oil on the stove top in a cast iron skillet and sear all sides of roast including the ends

Put skillet in preheated oven for about 20 minutes per Lb, turning roast every 10 minutes on each side/ends

Cook until internal temp reaches 145-150 degrees (about an hour and 20-30mins)

Remove from oven and let rest 15-20 minutes

Slices should be no thicker than ¼ inch, serve and enjoy!
