That's not how salmon is cooked usually. Your recommendation would produce a poor product.

Totally. I personally cook salmon until 120F and then sear the skin side. But was addressing the parent poster about the temperature that kills pathogens.

Edit: I now see that parent was talking specifically about parasites. Indeed those are killed by freezing beforehand. But a long bath at >130F kills the bacteria.
