MacGyver Chef is a new series at the gadget blog Gizmodo about attempts to cook meals without conventional cooking implements. Author Dan Nosowitz has previously poached chicken and couscous in a coffee maker. In his most recent post, he experimented with steaming salmon and cilanto sauce in a dishwasher. You can view read a step-by-step guide and view photos of the process at the link.

    Tut tut. Vincent Price did this years ago on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson.

    A bit of a waste of energy (not to mention water) using a dishwasher to cook something versus doing it on the stove. I know it’s supposed to be MacGuyverish, but this one is just a dumb idea from start to finish. At least using a coffee pot boiler and its carafe is actually plausible and practical at the same time. (Students use an equivalent: A hot plate.)

    Mmm, tasty-looking ingredients. I just moved and don’t have my pots and pans up here yet. Dishwasher salmon sounds possibly worth it.

    Old news is good news. My cousin used to do this at least twenty years ago.

    Doing it with such a small piece of fish is a complete waste, however in NI it’s commonly used for doing the complete fish when it’s too large to fit in your oven.

    In these days where energy consumption and scarcity of resources should be of everyone’s concern, this is simply irresponsible! There is no survival necessity inherent in this method other than to act cool like MacGyver in name but not spirit and purpose.

    Echoing others here, we were doing this 20 years ago.

    It might be worthwhile if the dishwasher is washing a load of dishes. I’d rather just sear the salmon on
    a skillet with a little oil and be done with it, though.
