Sockeye and SV sweet potatoes

theyolksonyou

Picked up some Sockeye at the local Kroger. Alder plank with lemon and dill 375 raised direct to 131 IT. 


About halfway. 






@bgebrent SV sweet potatoes are the bomb. Cube and in the bath at 150 for at least an hour up to overnight. Then in the kitchen clock, or egg, at 350 until they start to brown and IT is 190-200. Season as you please. These had Jallelujah salt. Crunchy outside, really sweet soft inside. 


Thanks for looking!

I was half expecting something wrapped in a bacon blanket.  Nice liking meal, love salmon.

Looks delicious! I love the fresh mozzarella, tomato and basil as a side.

@legume after my insurance biometric report came back bacon blankets are limited appearance for a while. Need more fins, feathers, seeds and stems and less mammal muscle. 

@eggingaround that side is a family favorite with a little balsamic drizzled on.

Dang! That looks amazing! We will definitely be doing your potatoes.

@minniemoh thanks. Let me know what you think. Way sweeter than just baking in the oven.

I like the sound of both of these.  Wife doesn't do fish much, but I love it.  Taking note of those potatoes.

Thanks to @Dyal_SC for giving this a bump, missed it the first time. Looks great. Fully agree on the Trés Booblay sweet taters, allowed to caramelize a bit after the bath with a sugar based rub they are awesome. (Carrots do this well too) Couple of weeks ago was our first SV corn on the cob, it was very good.

Thanks Craig. 

@skiddymarker would be interested in some deets on that corn!

Super simple, remove husk and silks as if you were planning to boil, drop in a bag with 5-10ml (1-2 tsp) butter per cob. SV at 85-88ºC (185-190ºF) for 30-40 minutes (will hold in the bath for an hour or more, then the kernels start to shrink a bit) most I've done at once was 8 cobs. The butter is absorbed by the cob (I think) but enough is there so they come out pre-buttered. The cobs are redy to eat a little quicker as they are not waterlogged. 
Pull and serve - all you add is S&P.

that's a great looking plate for sure!
