Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
The fish may appear underdone because of the color - cooking at such a low temp will preserve the vividness of the flesh, so the use of a thermometer is very important.

This recipe came from the Flavour Cooking School in Chicago. I have never been a fish person and salmon has always tasted too strong to me. This recipe is very good and worth the effort if your trying to get more fish in.
