Been a while since I used a dishwasher - but, some of the instruction pamphlets
which came with them (admittedly early examples) advised a "pre-wash" for
"heavily soiled or greasy" items. Like I said, that was some time ago - when my
mother and my sister got their dishwashers ... and Mom has been gone for nearly
40 years.

Them are senior moments, son. Welcome to senescence. I find that I sometimes,
in the middle of a conversation, lose the entire train of though I was
pursuing. Not often, but often enough to be annoying.

 ML> Gimmick.

Well, yeah. I knew that when I posted it, didn't I? Hell, I don't even care for
salmon most days - in any key.

Except I have this neat rice-veggie steamer which is much better than any
microwave steamer I have attempted to use. I also have one of those fold-up,
sit in the bottom of a sauce-pan steamers (http://tinyurl.com/MAXI-AIDS), as
well as a Revere steamer top for my 2 quart sauce-pan.

      2 cl Garlic; fine chopped
    1/4 ts Salt
      2 lb Orange roughy or cod filets

  hour then drain and pat dry. Mix the remaining ingredients
  except the fish fillets and mayonnaise.
  
  Cut the fish filets into 1-inch pieces and divide evenly
  between the corn husks. Place 2 or 3 Tbls of the chile
  mixture on the fish. Roll the corn husks lengthwise around
  the filling. Fold the ends toward the middle making a packet
  and secure with string. Place the corn husk packets on a
  rack in a 6-quart Dutch oven or steamer. Pour boiling water
  into the Dutch oven to a point just below the level of the
  rack.
  
  Cover and simmer until the fish flakes easily with a fork,
  about 25 minutes.
  
  Serve with Chipotle Mayonnaise.
