Bacon 🥓 of the Sea 🌊 spread the word!
Absolute nonsense and you know it.
I agree I’m a chef bluegill tails are too

Came here to say I enjoyed the video as I was looking for a salmon refresher...but do I have to assault the fridge?😁😉
So if you lived in a small town with only a Kroger and a Walmart to buy your fish, would you still eat the salmon skin?
Salmon skin is the most amazing thing ever when you crisp it up properly.
You said it!
Yup!
Sonny, in my opinion, you're bar none the best youtube chef. Great balance of food science, delicious meals, authenticity, and you're hilarious. Made the deviled eggs a few times now. Everyone says they are the best deviled eggs they've had 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
I think he's the best chef in general . He's a male Julia child's.
Yeah this is the first video I've watched of his and I was liking it until he started jumping like a madman kneeing a refrigerator that looks like he's done it many times.
@@RLee-we1fc that’s his shtick. It’s awesome. Enjoy a little humor bro. 😂
@@kennethmichael2460 It's not awesome. It's definitely not funny. I know what's funny. My friends say I should do stand-up all the time.
@@RLee-we1fc Just let him be himself man. That’s all I’m saying. Why do we feel the need to criticize everyone. I enjoy the not so seriousness of life occasionally. And if you can do it while teaching creatively.. then more power to you. In my opinion. I’d love to see your stand up show one day. 👍
The way you knee’d the frig had me in tears
My man pulled the Double Dragon II High Knee.
I pat my salmon dry as much as I can. I also apply a layer of salt to the skin side while it tempers before cooking to make sure that the skin side is dry as possible before adding to my hot, oiled pan. This is something that my father taught me long ago to help ensure that the salmon skin comes out crispy and properly seasoned. 👍💯🇺🇸
Yum! The skin is the best part!
This right here... and season the salmon with rosemary salt!!
Next level with salmon strip bacon...
You share original content that helps people grow as cooks!!
Sonny + salmon + Saturday? Alliteration intended I believe. YOU KNOW HE LOVES US!
He loves you because he's making money out of you.
…AND WE OUT
And you are getting professional chef recipes and techniques. Well worth it for what I pay.
Dude- I love your style and passion- THANKS for AMAZING content!
@@oaga71625e so?
You know what is the best thing in the world. Catching salmon on the shores of Seward. Then taking what you caught to the bbq by your tent and cooking it fresh from the water.
Thanks a million. This recipe was spot on what I was looking for. What I imagine to be a French style to cook salmon. So many variations you can do with this based on what herbs you add to the butter.
“Bacon of the sea because straight up that’s what salmon skin is” 😂😂 Love you man!
After cooking salmon so many times, I have to say boyfriend certainly knows what he is talking about.😀
Thats so true, i got my Salmon cooking from one of your earlier videos and its spot on. Salmon Skin is damn near close to Bacon…. So so delicious. Great Vid mate!
Wow this was amaizing! I'd bought myself what is named a piece of Salmons-tail, like I regularly do. This time I carved the skin like you showed, and crisped the skin extra (pulled it of, halfway) and yes, indeed, BACON OF THE SEA! Thanks, Sonny, for broadening my (culinary) horizon.
There is no way back...👏🌹🥂
I cooked salmon with a mango chutney for my wife one night and it was incredible. Crispy skin and moist tender meat. Sooo Good
I really did not expect you to start kneeing your fridge 🤣
Keep up the excellent work!
Followed this method (minus the butter basting) and got perfectly crispy salmon skin for the first time. Great cooking advice!
There are times that I prefer salmon skin over bacon. Great example (IMHO) salmon tacos with crispy skin topping maybe some mango salsa and Thai chili's for that little pop of sweet heat. Perfecto!
Yup. I make those too! Fantastic!
I learn something new from you chef in every video. Remove the white strip of cartilage from the equator of the fillets. And I'm an avid angler/fish cookerer. Have many recipes/methods of cooking Salmon. This one is new and I can't wait to use it. Thanks Sonny.
I have to say though, I'm biased, because the wild salmon in Alaska and here in Washington state is far fattier than the one in this video. When you take it out of the chill chest or freezer, the solidified, almost pure white fat is literally oozing out. So good and firm, and good for you.
As always, great video! And, we love you man! ....now, can I have your beer?
Yeah I’m your area you can get really nice wild salmon. Most of the states it’s now very lean but of course if you have the good stuff that is preferred.
@@thatdudecancook Aye, figured as much. Have too far to swim upstream to get to Valhal...er, Rocky Mountain high. Riggin' lean. Fourteener's forever! Go getcha one young padawan. Thanks for the response pal. Made my day.
I LOVE salmon skin and the term you coined for it, bacon of the sea, is perfect. I'm definitely going to try that scoring technique next time I cook salmon. We eat salmon here a couple times a week. I won't buy ocean-farmed salmon though, because the sea-based farms are just killing off the wild species in British Columbia and salmon being a keystone species, it's affecting wildlife not just in the ocean, but way inland as well. I agree that the higher fat content of farmed salmon makes them more delicious though, so we buy land-farmed steelhead instead. Technically they are a trout, but they are the ancestor of all modern salmon, I'm told, and they are just melt-in-your-mouth scrumptious.
I just never liked the skin from salmon. It just has some weird taste.
@@birdlawyer6191 communist
VERY interesting point at the start about caught vs. farmed salmon. It had never occurred to me, but it makes perfect sense. Probably why the last sockeye we bought came out a little dry.
Never thought of basting salmon tbh, but I’ll be sure to try it next time I cook salmon.
Uhhh... wash the pan? 🤣
@@majoroldladyakamom6948 wdym. I always baste steaks, but just didn’t think to baste salmon
The salmon skin is better than bacon!!! My opinion!!! 😍😍
Definitely will be using this video for reference next time I pan fry salmon! Looks absolutely delicious. 💖
Always learning new stuff from you chef. Removing the cartilage strip from the equator. And I'm an avid angler and fish cookerer, with many different recipes and methods of cooking salmon. This is a new one, and I'm excited to use it. Thanks.
Oh, and I am biased of course, but the wild salmon I catch in Alaska and here in Washington state, is way fattier than the one you have in this video. The almost pure white fat is literally oozing out all over it before you cook it, because it solidifies when you chill or freeze it.
As always, great video.
Thank you! I literally cook salmon all the time with mixed results this is sure to help!
“Bacon of the sea” hahahahahaha dying hahahahah
Your video was the first one to come up in my search so we are sitting down to a beautiful and tasty salmon dinner. I added a little garlic powder and fresh lemon juice to the basting step, served with a side of sauteed homegrown aspargus picked yesterday.
I wont do the knee kicks bcs i just cant afford any more knee injuries 😂
Fabulous! Thank you!
This is the only cooking channel on TH-cam I really enjoy!
Made that pulled pork with bbq sauce and holy smokes is it good!! That bbq sauce is something special!
Thank you for buying farmed salmon. Everyone be trying to grab up our wild salmon up here in Alaska
First video I've watched from this channel and I'm subscribing without even looking at the rest. I knew this guy would tell me just about everything I needed to know by his neurodivergent qualities and focus, he reminds me of someone I know and respect and that guy is dialed in as well. What got me was the preexisting dents on his fridge lol Yeah, I'll stick around and learn some stuff xD
In a hot enough pan, even the scales crisp into savory brittle! I EAT FISH SCALES. FISH SCALES, SONNY. I EAT THEM.
And seriously my man, you are as legit as they come. I'd been watching a handful of other chefs for YEARS before I found this channel and I'm like 97.2% sure you're the king of that little mountain.
I needed to see this like a box of Popsie's fish box ago! I overcooked too many salmon filets. Thanks for making this so simple. Bravo and love your humorous delivery!
Ummm, I am quite sure that my Father coined the "Bacon of the sea" back in 1970 while creating in his restaurant.
We used to ask for all the skin from the monger, then marinate for 2 days. This is aside from the skin perfectly cooked ON the salmon.
We also created chicken chips, turkey chicharrones, and beef fat nuggets, as well as the original pork chicharrón.
I appreciate your work, and love your videos.
Bravo
Sonny, thank you. Cooking has never been more easy or fun.
Sonny and Jacques, Jacques and Sonny, my favorite chefs and teachers. ❤
I like your High Knee technique. That’s the greatest take away from this video.
Mmm...that salmon looks great. Serve it up with some dill and lemon cream sauce and risotto with steamed broccoli. Yummy!
He's upgraded to 18 years of cooking now!
Hahaha yes! 20 incoming
Thank you SO much for this video. For practice, I took out some pre-seasoned (a sin, I know) salmon and skipped the oven and went straight to an old SS skillet. Moments later I was butter basting the other side and...I wished I could hit my fridge but I rent the place. Best. Salmon. Ever. Every bite has that orgasmic crunch to the skin. I still can't believe I cooked it.
I made this salmon and your butternut squash soup for Christmas Eve dinner and will be making your Beef Wellington as the centerpiece tomorrow. You’ve changed the way I look at flavors, given me a new favorite hobby in cooking, and simultaneously placed all household cooking duties on my shoulders (my wife says she’s done cooking now). Love your channel, chef. Keep the recipes coming!
Same here, I tried one of his chicken recipes not too long ago and it was great; though I've been doing most of the cooking for a while now.
Since I saw your short video of cooking your salmon this way, I always cook my salmon like that. Bacon of the sea!!
I tried to put lemon on the butter while basting it, and it puts it on another level!
Great technique! Love me some pan seared salmon! Definitely going to try it this way!
I ALLWAYS over or undercook salmon
My piece was a bit thicker so i left it for a extra minute it turned out PERFECT
Ty man greetings from germany
I just ate salmon bruh now im hungry for it again
I don’t know if you’ve ever seen the movie, but that fridge jump is putting off some serious “Wet Hot American Summer” vibes.
The kick to to the fridge after eating the sea bacon was the pinnacle of this video😂
I tried this tonight with a salmon topped salad and it was amazing. Definitely will be doing this every time
Did u kick your fridge as well just like how he did after tasting the salmon?
the crispy salmon skin is the main reason i cook salmon its just the best part, seeing people throw it away breaks my heart every time.
good guide ill give scoring the skin a try
OMGolly MY Fav is crispy skin! Salmon or most proteins!!!😋😋😋I Love ur recipes and detailed techniques u share here w us, Sonny! Thank you for the excellent entertainment too😜😆🎉
I’m a new subscriber & love your videos! This looks delicious!
This is my go to video when I’m cooking salmon in a pan. About the only way to make the video better, imho, is to show the pan temperature at all times. I’ve been using an IR thermometer to learn what X degrees looks like on my stove and that really helped. Now I can cook salmon in stainless steel with confidence.
My man pulled the Double Dragon II High Knee.
thank you.... that trick with turning the spatula upside down has helped me!!!!! no more skin getting stuck! great video
3:46
A suggestion… Put a few drops of water in the pan so people can see how hot the pan is in relation to the Leidenfrost Effect Temperature.
Thanks for the great video!
I had the BEST salmon I have ever made. “Thank you” doesn’t seem enough, but it’s all I have. Oooh!
I love your videos, and always get a good chuckle when you go ham on the refrigerator
I cook my salmon that way, and add two eggs over easy. The breakfast of champions.
And of course seasoned with the world famous rosemary salt.
Yup. As a young boy growing up in Alaska, my favorite was pan fried Dollyvarden and eggs for breakfast.
If you know you know
@@davidbuben3262 We used to catch Dollyvarden at Cooper's Landing. Alaska had/has such amazing fresh and salt water fish. And mammals and fowl and berries & well, everything. I wish we could have lived there longer than 1 year, but I was 10, so didn't have much say in the matter.
@@bradcampbell624 Well Brad, at least you got a taste of it. I was up there long enough to trap, hunt, fish, and even scuba dive for almost every critter that flies, walks and swims
I sure miss it.
Every now and then this guy pops up in my shorts and everytime I see him beat the shit out of his fridge.. I like it🤣
First time ever cooking fish and first time eating salmon. That was incredible dude. Thank you
Thanks! I wondered when to put garlic in. My question was answered. Trying I out later that day. Great video
"BACON OF THE SEA" Inspired 👏👏👏👏👏!!!
My salmon turned out so delicious because of this! Thank you!!
That poor fridge though...
Love your 'bacon of the sea'. It's the best part!
You make scoring the skin look so easy. Can it be done (semi-)frozen?
Great tips! Great vid!
I will definitely give this a go the next time I'm having salmon for dinner! 🤤
Cooked it just now and let me say that it was perfection
I have gone all the way back to cooking with sonny..... and I can't stop laughing 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Just got my Jerky! So far I’ve tried Rosemary Salt and Maple Bourbon, both delicious I love the tenderness of the jerky too knocked it out of the park man! Still have to try chipotle adobo black truffle sea salt and sgt gilbert black pepper
Enjoy the jerky my friend!
damn ive been making a lot of salmon and watched a lot of videos when i first started. this was by far the best and most informative salmon video ive seen. most of the stuff i learned the past year while cooking but damn why didnt i watch this when it uploaded
I’ve never liked fish, but for my health, I’m determined to acquire a taste. I tried this recipe… to the letter (but I added a hint of red chilli peppers…) and it was as amazing as I could imagine a piece of fish tasting if I loved fish? I will definitely try this again. Many thanks! #NewSubscriber
The trick resting the salmon with the airflow underneath was very good bro thanks for sharing that one !! Greetings from The Nederlands 🇳🇱👊
I've been waiting for something like this. You're the man, Sonny
Where has this channel been hiding? I live this guy!!!
You’re the best food TH-camr with the best palette I just oh my god
The amount of abuse that refrigerator has been through🤣🤣
Kneeing the fridge sent me to oblivion 😂😂😂
It always blows me away that Giovanni Ribisi is able to have thos whole alter ego on TH-cam as a chef. He's such a talented actor and is able to cook as well.
Sea bacon ... Fresh lemon juice ... THE BEST!
I can tell by how you explain prepping, location of the fat, adding slits on the skin-side, and using the 'bottom' side of the spatula, and letting the fish 'air-dry' so the bottom does not become soggy -- you 'feel' the food! Thank you :)
I can't wait to try this! Thank you!
You are awesome!! And so fun!! I am so glad I found you because I can now start making much better food. 💕
Dude. You simply Rock! Love all your recipes but this salmon is the Bomb!
That dude's refrigerator was harmed in the making of this video.
Scoring is MUCH easier if you take the two end and bring them a little closer to eachother, arching the fish piece slighly. It firms it up and you can cut in an easier way.
Best cooking channel there is, hands down. Cheers dude 👍
Really great tutorial. Thank you!
Hey sonny, love your work. Could you do some Spanish tapas? I’m getting super into it and I would love to learn from you!
You’re the best, Sonny! I just keep recommending your content to everyone that talks to me about cooking anything. If I like them 😉
Damn it! Where were you on Thursday when the skin on my salmon came off in the pan!?
I subbed when I saw you "teaching your fridge a lesson" in the end.
You can also start salmon in cold non-stick pan and get great crispy skin. Learned that from America'S Test Kitchen. Great video! Thank you.
Beating on the fridge was so Funny.. Awesome video. Thank you.
Can you recommend a good site to purchase kitchen knives?
Love your channel, i can tell you’re a legit and passionate chef, mad respect!
I hope Sonny answers, but if not here's a list of four, two are recommended by Sonny, one from America's test kitchen, and one from The Bearded butcher's. They are all excellent and are reasonably priced.
Tojiro 11" bread knife. Be careful with all these knives as they are extremely sharp, but especially this one. Sharpest bread knife I've ever used.
Suisun Inox western style 5.9 inch petty knife. It was sold out on Amazon so I found a similar 5.9 inch petty from Tojiro. It's excellent.
Victorinox 8" chefs knife, and finally,
Victorinox 6.5" boning knife with walnut handle. I'm a knife collector but trust the experts in their field for everyday use equipment. P.S. That Dude can Cook has a video I think is titled "Gift giving guide" or something like that. Anyway a lot of his videos have links in the description for his knife and kitchen tools recommendations and you'll get a discount! I've got quite a collection of his stuff and he hasn't disappointed.
I love the knees to the fridge
Great explanation, definitely learned some new things, also really appreciate the temps in Celsius, thanks!
"Bakin' of the C" is a great phrase. Well done, Sunny.!
"Shredded like Bruce Lee of the rivers" 🤣🤣🤣👏👏👏👏
Awesome, just learned how to cook tomorrow's dinner - thank you.
i dont know why the beatings of the fridge is so funny
I am not a fan of salmon but the way you cooked this looks delicious 🤤
"Swedish" gravlax... the skin (with a tinsy bits left behind when slices have been cut...) Fried crisp in butter... damn. Magical on its own. Combine the skin with some of the lox... in a "sushi" roll with only avocado and mayo/crème fresh mix with fresh dill. Boner stuff! Eat immediately after rolled.
Love the way you did you send it is so good❤❤❤
