Problem: Article: Olive oil poaching is a technique best used with fish that are sturdy and flavorful, such as salmon, halibut or tuna. Choose either steaks or fillets that are about 3/4 to one inch thick for best results. The taste and texture of the final dish is better with thicker, sturdier fish than it is with very delicate fillets. Season the fish with salt, pepper and other herbs that complement the meal you're serving. This method also works well with shrimp, prawns and other shellfish. Cooking at a low temperature will preserve the integrity of the fish. Set it out on the counter for 10 minutes or so before you cook it. Letting the fish come to room temperature will ensure that it cooks evenly and fully once you place it in the oil bath. Putting it straight into the oil from the refrigerator would cause the temperature of the oil to drop, throwing off the cooking time and affecting the taste and texture of the finished dish. Line a glass baking dish with thin slices of lemon, then arrange the fish fillets on top of the lemon slices. Pour enough olive oil over the fish to cover the fillets. Place the baking dish in the oven and poach the fish until the fillets are opaque and flake apart easily when forked. Check the fish after an hour, and return it to the oven for an additional 10 to 15 minutes if the fillets need additional time. Serve warm over a bed of rice or steamed vegetables.
Summary: Choose a flavorful fish. Preheat the oven to 250 degrees. Let the fish come to room temperature. Prepare the baking dish. Poach the fish for one hour.

Problem: Article: The battery is needed only to send an initial current through the wire to cause the hydrogen in the water molecules touching the electrodes to separate from the oxygen, forming bubbles around the electrodes. This process is called electrolysis. Notice the bubbles forming around each electrode. One electrode has bubbles of hydrogen, while the other electrode has oxygen bubbles. The battery source does not need to be completely attached the clip, just touched to the battery terminals to begin the reaction. The battery is only needed to initiate the reaction. The separated hydrogen and oxygen will recombine into water, releasing the energy originally used to split them as electricity. The platinum in the electrode coils serves as a catalyst to speed the recombination of the hydrogen and oxygen into water molecules. Initially, the output may be as great as two volts, but will decline as the hydrogen bubbles dissipate, quickly at first and then gradually as the last of the bubbles pop. A light bulb or LED may appear bright initially, but will quickly dim and then gradually fade away.
Summary:
Touch the 9-volt battery terminals to the battery clip for one to two seconds. Remove the battery. Read the output on the voltmeter.
