Steps:
- Juice 1 grapefruit into a bowl. Cut the peel and pith from the other grapefruit. Remove the flesh from the membranes with a sharp knife, adding any juice to the juice in the bowl. Reserve the grapefruit segments.
- Boil the reserved juice, honey and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a small saucepan until reduced by half and slightly syrupy, 4 to 6 minutes.
- Toss the grapefruit segments with the shallots, oil, parsley, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
- Bring a large, straight-sided skillet with 4 cups of well-salted water to a simmer; the water should cover the salmon. Add the salmon to the skillet and remove from the heat. Let the salmon cook in the hot water until just cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes.
- Transfer the salmon to paper towels and pat dry. Place on serving plates. Drizzle the salmon with the sauce and top with the grapefruit salad.

Steps:
- First make the poaching liquid for the fish. Put the peppercorns, 2 tsp salt, vinegar, fennel, bay leaves and parsley stalks in a saucepan with 2.5 litres of water, and bring to the boil. Boil for 10 mins so all the flavours infuse into the liquid.
- Make sure that you choose a roasting tin big enough to hold the salmon fillet. Strain the liquid into the empty tin, bring to the boil on the hob, then add the fish, skin-side down, making sure it is covered in liquid. Scatter around the lemon slices, and simmer gently for 1-2 mins until the fish changes colour completely. Cover the surface with a large piece of foil, turn off the heat and leave to cool completely. The fish will cook as the liquid cools.
- To make the salsa verde, put all the ingredients into the bowl of a food processor, then blitz to make a bright, slightly chunky sauce. Season to taste.
- Carefully remove the salmon to a serving platter and peel away the skin if you like. Serve with the salsa verde, new potatoes and asparagus.

Steps:
- Fill a small saucepan with water and bring to a boil over high heat; season with salt. Place a large skillet over medium heat and ladle in enough boiling water just to cover the bottom of skillet. Season salmon with salt and pepper and add to water. Cook at a bare simmer until fish is just warm to the touch, 3 to 5 minutes, depending on preferred degree of doneness. Serve immediately.
Tips:
- Make sure to use fresh, sushi-grade salmon for the best results.
- If you don't have white wine, you can use dry vermouth or even water in its place.
- To make sure the salmon is cooked evenly, use a large skillet that is big enough to hold the salmon in a single layer.
- If you don't have grapefruit, you can use orange or lemon instead.
- Be careful not to overcook the salmon, or it will become dry and tough.
- Serve the salmon immediately after cooking, with the grapefruit salsa spooned on top.
