I cooked salmon on a salt stone...w pic

I remember a thread asking about how they worked so here's my testimony.
Tbh, the first thing I did was lick it. It is salty
It has to heat up with the grill or stove. It heats up FAST. Much like a pan. I did not expect it to heat up so fast. I put my Hand flat on it to check the heat soon after I turned the burners on and burned the shite out of myself put my stone on my gas stove, across two burners. I let it get hit and put on two marinated pieces of salmon.
The stone cooked the salmon perfectly. I flipped the fish but dot think that I had to bc I didn't leave it very long after the flip and the salmon was cooked evenly. It left a delicious light crust on the side that was on the stone. The fish had a wonderful salt undertone, not too salty. The decision to use the stone was made after I had put the fish in the marinade (soy sauce, brown sugar, lemon).
Next time I won't use the marinade, to see what the stone does by itself.
You can't run water over it so I just scraped off the fish residue.
A fun and useful kitchen tool. I do recommend.
It gets smaller after each use but I didn't notice any decrease in mass after I used it so I suppose it takes a while.
You can keep it in the freezer and serve cold stuff on it too.

So far it's just been on my cutting board in the cabinet.
But I think I'm going to keep it in the freezer, bc you can serve cold apps on it too. Looks cool. Maybe for dinner parties.

Is there any way to cook salmon where it is not cooked "perfectly"? There's so much natural fat in it if you don't cook salmon perfectly you got issues.

It was lightly cooked throughout, besides the crust.
I have burned and undercooked salmon several times. The stone is dummy proof.
It was a gift, I wouldn't have bought one for myself bc it seemed gimmicky, but I will keep one at my house from now on.

I think I've seen them at Red Stick Spice Co. on Jefferson.
I imagine places like Sur la Table or Williams Sonoma might have them.

Looks great! Forget which place, but a restaurant is serving grilled fish on a salt stone (maybe Root?). In any event, found the stones for sale on Amazon:

Mine was from sur la table (30$) but I know goodwood hardware has them also.
Amazon always has better deals though.

I like the marinade concoction. How long do you soak for?
