Cold Poached Salmon With Dill Mustard Sauce image

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.

Categories     seafood, main course

Time 30m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 small bunch fresh dill
1 whole salmon (wild, if possible), about 6 pounds, cleaned and scaled (or substitute a center-cut section of a larger salmon)
1 tablespoon salt
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons yellow mustard seeds
1 teaspoon black peppercorns
1 onion, peeled and quartered
3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
1 cup sour cream
3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
3 tablespoons chopped dill
1/2 teaspoon salt, or as needed
1 generous bunch dill
2 lemons, cut into wedges

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.

This is a wonderful (and easy) recipe I got from my Aunt. The flavors of lemon and dill really complement the fish. I like to use wild Alaskan salmon for this recipe, but any salmon will work. I usually don't measure, so these are all estimates. Play with the ingredients to suit your own tastes!

Categories     Very Low Carbs

Time 27m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 lbs fresh salmon fillets
1 1/2 cups white wine
1 teaspoon butter or 1 teaspoon soy margarine
2 teaspoons flour
1 teaspoon white pepper
1 tablespoon fresh dill
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 pinch cayenne
1 pinch salt

Steps:

  • Cut salmon fillets into 4 portions.
  • In a large saucepan, bring white wine to a simmer. Place fillets in saucepan; cover.
  • Poach 12 minutes, or until the inner flesh has turned light pink.
  • Remove salmon with slotted spatula, cover, and place in 250 degree oven.
  • Combine hot poaching liquid in blender with remaining ingredients. Process for 1 minute. Always be careful when blending hot liquids!
  • Return to saucepan and whisk until thickened.
  • Serve poached salmon fillets with dill sauce spooned on top.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Salmon: Opt for a fresh, skin-on salmon fillet with vibrant color and a mild, briny aroma. Avoid fillets with a slimy texture or an overly fishy smell.
  • Prepare the Salmon Properly: Pat the salmon fillet dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture, ensuring a crispy skin and even cooking. Season the salmon generously with salt and pepper, enhancing its natural flavors.
  • Use High-Quality Olive Oil: Extra virgin olive oil is the preferred choice for poaching salmon, as it imparts a delicate, fruity flavor to the dish. Ensure the oil is fresh and of good quality.
  • Control the Poaching Temperature: Maintain a gentle simmer throughout the poaching process to achieve perfectly cooked salmon. Avoid boiling the water, as this can result in overcooked and dry fish.
  • Monitor the Cooking Time: The cooking time for salmon depends on its thickness. Use a kitchen thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare or 155°F (68°C) for medium.
  • Make a Flavorful Dill Sauce: Combine sour cream, mayonnaise, fresh dill, lemon juice, salt, and pepper to create a creamy and tangy dill sauce that complements the delicate flavor of the salmon.
