Stephen King<\/strong> is a master of horror. Even his recipes are terrifying. A recent tweet sent his fans into a tizzy. He\u2019s got an odd taste in fish.<\/p>\n

Microwaved\u2026 Salmon?<\/h2>\n

In the wee hours of April 19, the prolific King logged onto Twitter. He posted an unorthodox recipe for salmon. He suggests dressing with olive oil and lemon juice, standard, then\u2026 nuking it in the microwave for a few minutes.<\/p>\n

Dinner: Get a nice salmon filet at the supermarket, not too big.
Put some olive oil and lemon juice on it.
Wrap it in damp paper towels.
Nuke it in the microwave for 3 minutes or so.
Eat it.
Maybe add a salad.<\/p>\n

Reactions, as you would expect, were all over the place. Using the den of hot pockets to cook fish just does not feel right at all. Folks can microwave husks of corn or a lovely baked potato, but salmon? Oof.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The paper towels and microwave leave me feeling unsettled.<\/p>\n

King was soon inundated with reactions, many referencing his reputation for horror. From the man who gave Gerald\u2019s Game<\/em> to the world comes the microwaved paper towel salmon.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s worth noting King is not strictly a horror writer. He\u2019s responsible for Stand By Me<\/em> and the Shawshank Redemption<\/em>. Even still, some think this is his most frightening work yet.<\/p>\n

King Stands His Ground<\/h2>\n

Around 5:00 PM the following day, King hopped back on. Presumably seeing his mentions on fire, King stood his ground.<\/p>\n

I have one thing to say to people slagging on my salmon recipe: DON\u2019T KNOCK OT IF YOU HAVEN\u2019T TRIED IT.

We\u2019ll ignore the It<\/em> author misspelling \u201cit.\u201d He also took the time to retweet one of his followers who gave the recipe a shot.<\/p>\n

I can vouch for Stephen King’s Salmon Recipe for the microwave boys and girls\u2026 it’s delicious\u2026I have been microwaving Salmon for years with different spices and then placed over Jasmine Rice. \ud83e\udd70<\/p>\n

One day later, King is still responding to his fans. One person bigged him up, writing \u201cNobody recommends literature and how to cook salmon better than the Master\u2026\ud83e\udd90.\u201d King took the time to respond.<\/p>\n

Other Life Hacks<\/h2>\n

The microwave may seem like a one-stop shop for food, but there are numerous foods that you\u2019re better off cooking other ways. Eggs and raw meat certainly stick out. Numerous vegetables like broccoli and carrots can lose nutrients in the box. You\u2019re better off finding another way.<\/p>\n

As for the dreaded spotted heat problem, well, there are life hacks for that. Pushing food to the edge of the plate can help it get some more heat, for the center of the plate is liable to be a cold spot. Obviously, take this with a grain of salt. Microwaves are dangerous, and you shouldn\u2019t throw just anything in there willy-nilly.<\/p>\n
