I present my recipe for Flame Grilled Salmon in this post. This is a wonderfully simple fish dish for the garden and barbecue.

The barbecue has stayed in the cellar for a long time, I prefer to use the fire bowl. That way I can end the barbecue event with a campfire. Today I can do without the charcoal completely. The beech wood will be used in a moment. After all, our fish fillet needs indirect fire heat.

A cooking video accompanies you around the campfire. I wish you good luck and bon appétit!

Here is the handy list for your shopping:

Fire bowl and wood —> Building market or forest

Soon, Lachs.de will be offering a flaming salmon set, so you can prepare the dish “out of the box” directly.

I’ll leave some more information about the special sesame seeds in the last line of the list. I have put together a great sesame spice set together with chefino.de. The sesame furikake come from Japan and taste delicious.

These are sesame seeds with wasabi, ume plums, kimchi and yuzu flavour. The sesame seeds don’t just go with fish, but with any vegetable, salad, Asian dish or fusion cuisine. I can’t keep my fingers off them right now, a tasty and delightful change.

Sesame furikake from Japan taste delicious. Flavoured sesame seeds are the spice barbecue trend of 2021!

Instruction

Prepare the salmon fillet and flame salmon board in the kitchen. Assemble the board according to the instructions and test it on the cold fire bowl. Then build the campfire, put the fire extinguisher or garden hose in position and light the fire.

Salmon fillet vacuum-sealed — Wrapped salmon fillet in the kitchen on the kitchen board.

Cut open the salmon fillet packaging and rinse the fillet under cold running water.

Packed salmon fillet — Salmon fillet unpacked on the kitchen board.

Dry the salmon fillet on kitchen paper.

Provide a flame salmon board.

Oiling flamed salmon board — Flamed salmon board with oil.

Coat the grill board with olive oil.

Salmon on board — Place the salmon fillet on the board.

Place the salmon fillet skin side down on the prepared board.

Season the salmon fillet and place on the board.

Sprinkle the fish fillets with the spice. I used a little too much, I use the flaming salmon spice rather sparingly.

Fix the salmon fillet on the board — Fix the seasoned salmon fillet on the board

Fix the fish fillet on the board with the tensioner.

Flaming salmon by the fire — Cook the flamed salmon board on the fire.

Cook the prepared salmon fillet indirectly on the campfire for a good 35 minutes. Towards the end of the cooking time, I sprinkle rosemary and thyme into the fire so that the aromas of the herbs have an effect on the fish fillet.
