King Salmon with Delicata & Sage Brown Butter

An exceptionally well-written recipe with flawless parallel timing and precise seasoning.

Score: 10/10

Strengths

  • Perfectly orchestrated parallel timing, with the salmon and the vegetables finishing at exactly the same time.
  • Excellent, accurate use of salt percentages for both the salmon and the vegetables.
  • Smart instruction to refrigerate the salmon on its baking sheet while the vegetables get a head start, ensuring it doesn't come up to room temperature and overcook in the oven.
  • A well-balanced flavor profile combining the richness of salmon and brown butter with sweet squash and acidic apple cider vinegar.
