Aha!  Dishwashers spray lots of hot water for as long as twenty or thirty minutes.  I could wrap the salmon in foil after seasoning it and giving it a splash of white wine, and lay it on the top rack of the dishwasher and put it through the wash and rinse cycle a couple of times until it had the equivalent of ten minutes per pound in hot water.  I was very pleased with my idea because I was intent on serving whole, poached salmon and nothing else would do.

Food, Whole Foods, Dean and Deluca.  These three pioneering meccas of gastronomy, all less than a block from each other, had a major influence on how and what many of us eat today.
