Tonight I’m returning to a familiar theme of the love/hate relationship I have with creativity. Now, to be fair by now this is probably at worst a 80/20 type of situation, however it’s still true that that 20% hate bit can and does psychologically loom large.
Because obviously in order to try new things you’ll need to roll the dice and accept that it won’t always turn out amazingly. To people with perfectionist tendencies that’s often a hard bet to make. It’s much easier to just stick to what you already know. But where’s the challenge, the adventure, the fun in that? When you take a leap of faith, believe in yourself, and it even also works, it’s one of the most rewardingly feelings in the world.
So yes this is yet another first attempt at cooking something with no recipe and just a reel to watch. As I expected from the get go I didn’t understand what the trick was to keep it mi cuit, but I’m still quite happy with it, and yes it was bloody delicious (even with a split sauce).
Please roll the dice. You can practice every day with cooking to build up to doing the same with the rest of your life. 😊

Salmon en brioche. Salmon brined, salmon farce, savoy cabbage, brioche crust. Dashi/crème fraiche/tarragon oil/salmon roe, shiso. I got distracted and boiled the sauce which isn’t really a good look but still tasted fine.
