You can use the bottom of a springform pan, also. Lemon will not only kill the natural fish's flavor, but will also overcook it. If you like your fish lemon-ey, just add some zeste on top instead (grated lemon skin)

Cooking101: learn how to make bread. It's easy, cheap and the result is always good. Start with the basic recipe: flour/oil/yeast/salt/sugar/water and go from there. Leftover rice? Make arancini (just google it). Leftover wine or broth? Freeze it in an ice cube tray and use it whever you want to improve a dish. Making beef casserole? Add a tomato. It will make your meat more tender. Used too much salt? Add a boiled potato. It will balance the flavor. Use lemon zeste. Improves almost anything.

I learned bread in a different traditoin: Water, salt, yeast, flour. If you add sugar/oil etc., you're getting into enriched breads. Of course, I have three strains of sourdough in my kitchen, one based on potato, one on barley, one on whole grains of wheat. Lovely subtleties.

Use the bagel setting on your toaster to toast hamburger buns for crunchy inner but a soft outer, making no crumbs. Works on the BBQ too, but butter the inside so it picks up residual flavours from the grates; 45 seconds does it.
