I don't know how to cook. It's not that I don't try, but I wing everything (unnecessarily, because I know what recipes and Google are...) typically with disastrous results. Every time, I learn something new and avoid the same mistakes in the future.
Tonight's lesson: Coconut cooking oil has a very low smoke point.
I ran out of olive oil, and needed to cook salmon, so coconut oil seemed like a good substitute.
Nope. My house looks like I'm running a fog machine. The first batch of fish burnt. The second batch dried out. Severely.
Right now, I'm enjoying a nice plate of salmon jerky. Yum.
