I Followed this receipt and found that the skin doesn't get a chance to cook and you have to take the skin of to eat it. Should you be searing it in the pan skin side down??
ByandFar said Sauvignon Blanc... that is fine but salmon has a larger fat content, good fat but fat none the less, so it could stand up to a chardonnay, pouilly fusse(sp) a blend or even a pinot noir. Red wine is discouraged because it leaves an unrelenting metallic taste/feel in your mouth when paired with some fish, don't try anything bigger than a pinot.
If you've never had a grilled pesto chicken sandwich, you haven't lived........and if you think pesto is only for pasta you've never been to California.
Darlin', I'm sorry but pesto and salmon? Uh uh. You're wasting both cooking them together like that. Pesto goes with pasta or gnochi, maybe on some bread. Salmon should only be cooked broiled after having marinated all day in lemon juice and soy sauce, or maybe some terriyaki. Don't ruin nice salmon with pesto.
Don't ruin salmon by marinating all day in lemon juice, soya, or perhaps teriyaki. Shouldn't salmon taste like salmon?! A nice pesto would complement the flavor of the salmon, a marinade would totally overpower and ruin it.
Comment from a fishmonger: the recipe sounds good, but I think the recipe could probably use some citrus or vinegar in addition to what is in the pesto already. Also in response to another comment, searing the fish isn't just to make it look pretty. It really locks in the flavor if you can seer it before roasting, it doesn't matter if you cover up the marks.
So you cover those lovely grill marks with the pesto? Stupid. Just put the pesto on the fish and roast it straightahead if you are going to cover the sear marks. Dumb.
This was pretty cool actually. Well done! My mom has been begging me to do something like this for her catering business... Thanks for the encouragement.
That's some nice looking salmon. Pesto doesn't stay fresh in the fridge for very long though. If you buy it (or better making it yourself), you should use it within a week.

The initial searing is to lock in the juices, not for grill marks. It's like forming another skin so that when it's baked it stays very moist.
For the rest of your life I suggest you refrain from calling someone dumb.
