I use the aloe to treat skin irritation. I snip off a leaf, remove the spikes by running a sharp knive along the leaf's edge, and apply the sap right onto the burn or insect bite. The sap stops the pain immediately. These plants are very handy to have in the garden-they are hardy, beautiful, and useful.
Here I have a nice boneless skinless 8 ounce salmon fillet. First we'll preheat our oven to 400 degrees. I'm going to drizzle with a little bit of olive oil and then about a teaspoon of dill. Generously season with salt and pepper and now a little sprinkle of lemon juice. Now let's put this in the oven for about 12 to 15 minutes. Be careful not to overcook this salmon. You want to look for just a little flaking around the oven. That will let you know it's just perfect.
Bake the salmon in the oven for 25 to 30 minutes, depending on the thickness of the salmon fillet. To determine when the salmon is cooked, insert a sharp kitchen knife into the thickest part of the fillet and pull it to one side. The fish should appear cooked through and no longer be translucent.
