COLD POACHED SALMON WITH DILL MUSTARD SAUCE
The centerpiece of a summer solstice menu created in 2005 for The Times, this dish alludes to gravlax - the Scandinavian dish of cured salmon - with the spices used to poach the salmon and the sweet mustard sauce. The cooking technique here yields the most tender flesh you may ever encounter with salmon.

Steps:
- To poach salmon, begin by placing the small bunch of dill inside cavity of the salmon, and put salmon in a fish poacher or a large roasting pan. (If necessary remove head to fit salmon in pan.) Cover with water, and add salt, sugar, mustard seeds, peppercorns and onion. Place over high heat, and bring to a boil. Turn salmon over, and cook 10 minutes. Turn off heat, and let salmon cool in water for about an hour.
- To make sauce, whisk together the mustard and brown sugar in a small pitcher. Add sour cream and vinegar, and whisk until smooth. Mix in the chopped dill, and season with salt. Cover, and refrigerate until serving.
- To serve, remove salmon from poaching liquid and lay on large sheet of parchment or waxed paper. Remove skin from top, gently peeling it away, along with fins. Carefully lift top layer of salmon in one long fillet, removing it from backbone and transferring it to a large platter.
- Lift backbone off fish in one piece, and pick out any other visible bones. Turn fish over, and remove skin as before. Then place second fillet alongside the first on platter. Arrange leafy sprigs of dill between fillets, and drizzle sauce on top. Scatter lemon wedges around edges of plate. Pass pitcher of sauce separately.

QUICK POACHED SALMON WITH DILL MUSTARD SAUCE
This is an easy, elegant, wonderful salmon dish with a no-cook sauce. It really doesn't get much easier. I love it best on swelteringly hot summer days. Fresh steamed asparagus goes very well with this, and the sauce tastes good on it as well.

SALMON WITH CREAMY DILL SAUCE
There's nothing like fresh salmon, and my mom bakes it just right so it nearly melts in your mouth. The sour cream dill sauce is subtly seasoned with horseradish so that it doesn't overpower the delicate salmon flavor. -Susan Emery, Everett, Washington

BROILED SALMON FILLET WITH MUSTARD DILL SAUCE
Steps:
- Preheat broiler.
- Rinse salmon and pat dry. Arrange salmon, skin side down, in a foil-lined jelly-roll pan and rub thoroughly with soy sauce. Season salmon with salt and pepper and broil about 4 inches from heat 12 to 15 minutes, or until just cooked through. Transfer salmon to a platter and garnish with herbs.
- Serve salmon warm or at room temperature with mustard dill sauce.
Tips:
- Choose the right mustard: Dijon mustard is a good option for its sharp flavor, while whole-grain mustard adds a bit of texture. You can also use a combination of different mustards to create your own unique flavor.
- Fresh herbs are key: Dill is the star of this sauce, but you can also add other fresh herbs like parsley, chives, or tarragon. Be sure to chop the herbs finely so they distribute evenly throughout the sauce.
- Use good-quality mayonnaise: This is the base of the sauce, so make sure you use a mayonnaise that you enjoy the taste of. You can also use Greek yogurt or sour cream as a healthier alternative.
- Adjust the consistency to your liking: If you want a thinner sauce, add more milk or water. If you want a thicker sauce, add more mayonnaise or yogurt.
- Let the sauce chill before serving: This allows the flavors to meld together and develop. You can make the sauce up to 2 days in advance.
Conclusion:
Mustard dill sauce is a delicious and versatile sauce that can be served with a variety of dishes, especially salmon. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy sauce, give this recipe a try.
