Admit it, you tried making hollandaise that one time and it was horrible.

If you want to crack the code of hollandaise consider joining my substack

Poached salmon fillets 🍣

(The Julia Child way)

For 8 salmon fillets 1/2 lb each:

1. Bring 2 quarts of water to a boil in a big skillet, adding 1 tbsp salt and 1/4 cup white-wine vinegar.

2. Slide in the salmon, bring back almost to the simmer and poach just below simmer for 8 minutes.

*The fish is done when just springy to the touch*

3. Drain, remove skin and serve with lemon wedges, melted butter or hollandaise.

Neuroscientist Antonio Damasio studied folks with damage in the part of the brain where emotions are generated.

They couldn’t make decisions.

They could describe what they should do logically but found it impossible to make even the simplest choice.

Deep

Emotion is a necessary element to decision making that you ignore at your own peril.

We’re all irrational, all emotional.

Never Split the Difference is the most captivating book on Negotiations I’ve read so far

How to make your own Mayo:

(1 cup)

1 egg yolk

2 teaspoons Dijon mustard

1 cup good-quality olive oil (not extra-virgin)*

Salt and pepper

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Substitutions

Oil --> avocado oil

Acid --> white wine vinegar or sherry vinegar

1. MACHINE: Put yolk and mustard in a blender or food processor and turn the machine on. While it’s running, add the oil in a slow, steady stream. When an emulsion forms, you can add it a little faster (and scrape down the sides as necessary), until all the oil is incorporated.

1. HAND: Put yolk and mustard in a medium bowl. Beat together with a whisk. Begin to add the oil in dribbles as you beat, adding more as each amount is incorporated.

You’ll notice when a thick emulsion forms. Then you can add the remaining oil a little faster.
