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.
Coat the salmon with the herbs: Pat the herbs on top of the salmon, forming a thick layer. I haven't had much luck coating the sides (the herbs usually fall off), but you can certainly give it a try. Bake the salmon 25 to 30 minutes: Place the salmon in the oven on the middle rack and close the door immediately. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes. A thicker fillet will usually need a little longer time. Check for doneness at 20 minutes: Remove the tray of salmon from the oven and close the oven door.
