COLD POACHED SALMON WITH DILL MUSTARD SAUCE



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.

Categories     Main Course

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons white vinegar
1 tablespoon honey
2 teaspoons kosher salt
4 (6-ounce) center cut salmon fillets (skin on)
water
12 sprigs fresh dill (plus additional chopped dill for serving)
6 whole peppercorns
1 bay leaf
Cracked black pepper (lemon wedges (for serving))

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.

Categories     Lemon

Time 25m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 kg thawed salmon fillet, with skin on 1 side (may substitute with steelhead trout)
1 -1 1/2 tablespoon pickled capers (can be found in grocery store located in same aisle as pickles)
1 tablespoon chopped dill weed (use fresh or frozen but not dried)
1/4 cup thinly sliced onion
1 tablespoon lemon juice or 1/2 fresh lemon, peeled and sliced
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit.
  • Remove any visible bones and cut off the head and tail (if it hasn't already been done for you) If using a poacher place the tray in the poacher, add 1/4 cup water and place your salmon in the tray skin side down.
  • If you do not have a fish poacher (how many of us do?) you can use any oven safe pan large enough to hold your fish.
  • Just crumple and crinkle a medium sized sheet of tin foil and place your fish on the foil skin side down.
  • Add enough water to just come to the edge of the foil without spilling onto the fish (approx 1/3 cup).
  • On top of the fish sprinkle all ingredients.
  • Cover with lid or tin foil.
  • Cook for 12-20 min's.
  • For RARE fish, cook just until white liquid emerges from fish (this is the cooked fish oil).
  • It will be pinky white on the outside and peachy pink inside.
  • For more well done fish, cook until fish is a pinky white color all the way through.
  • Place on a platter to serve.
  • Leave onions, capers and dill on the fish.
  • Slice lemons on the side for those who like fresh lemon juice.
  • This salmon is great served with rice and steamed veggies or a salad.

Tips:

  • Choose the right salmon. Look for wild-caught, sustainably-sourced salmon fillets that are firm to the touch and have a vibrant color.
  • Use a large enough poaching liquid. The salmon should be completely submerged in the liquid, so use a pot or skillet that is large enough to accommodate the fillets.
  • Don't boil the poaching liquid. Bring it to a simmer over medium heat, then reduce the heat to low and maintain a gentle simmer throughout the cooking process.
  • Cook the salmon until it is opaque throughout. This will take about 10-12 minutes for a 1-inch thick fillet. You can check the doneness by inserting a fork into the thickest part of the salmon; it should flake easily.
  • Remove the salmon from the poaching liquid and let it cool slightly before serving. This will help to prevent the salmon from overcooking.

Conclusion:

Poached salmon is a delicious and healthy way to enjoy this versatile fish. It is a simple dish to prepare, and the results are always impressive. Whether you are serving it for a special occasion or a casual weeknight meal, poached salmon is sure to please everyone at the table.
