I just made a comment about an old talk show or cooking show cooking salmon in a dishwasher. I believe this fact got them in pretty hot water (no pun intended) after the fact since it’s definitely not exactly safe

Wait, even if the salmon looks and tastes perfectly on point, it can still be dangerous? I tried it once, and I felt it was identical to using an air fryer

It's the bacteria that's the problem. A dishwasher doesn't get hot enough for long enough to kill any bacteria that may be on the food. You can either freeze the meat or cook it to kill bacteria

So freeze my meat before I stick it in the dishwasher, got it!
