EASY POACHED SALMON
In 46 years of marriage, we had never tasted salmon until a friend told me about poaching it in a low cooker. I tried it and got flaky, moist results with little fuss. I added some soy sauce for extra flavor. - Johnna Johnson, Scottsdale, Arizona

Steps:
- Fill a saute pan wide enough to hold the salmon in a single layer without overlapping the fillets and tall enough to cover the salmon with water about 1/4 of the way to the top. Add the vinegar, honey, and salt. Whisk to combine.
- Carefully lower the salmon fillets into the pan in a single layer. Add more water so that they are just barely covered.
- Scatter the dill, peppercorns, and bay leaf over the top.
- Bring the water to a gentle boil over medium-high heat. Simmer the salmon, adjusting the heat as needed so that you maintain a steady simmer but not a rapid boil. Let cook 2 minutes.
- Check the temperature of the salmon using an instant read thermometer. It should be around 135 to 140 degrees F, no more (fish is considered cooked at 145 degrees F, but the temperature will continue to rise as it rests). If needed, cook it 1 to 2 minutes more. DO NOT overcook or your salmon will be dry.
- With a wide spatula, gently lift the poached salmon out of the water and place it on a plate (discard the poaching liquid). Cover and let rest 4 minutes. Enjoy hot, sprinkled with additional chopped dill, cracked black pepper, and a squeeze of lemon as desired.

Steps:
- Divide all the ingredients except the salmon between 2 skillets.
- If you do not have one big enough to hold all the salmon.
- Add the salmon filets and bring the liquid to a simmer over medium heat.
- Lower to a medium low heat and gently simmer until the fish is medium to medium well about 6 minutes.
Tips:
- For the freshest flavor, use wild-caught salmon if possible.
- To ensure even cooking, use a large skillet or braising pan that is just large enough to accommodate the salmon fillets in a single layer.
- If you don't have a steamer basket, you can create one by placing a colander over a pot of boiling water.
- To make sure the salmon is cooked through, insert a thermometer into the thickest part of the fillet. It should read 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
- The white wine butter sauce is a delicious addition to the salmon, but it can also be used to serve other fish or seafood dishes.
Conclusion:
This poached salmon recipe is a simple and elegant dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. The salmon is cooked gently in a flavorful poaching liquid, and the white wine butter sauce adds a touch of richness and acidity. Serve the salmon with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, rice, or mashed potatoes.
