Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 Ruby Red grapefruit, room temperature
3 large egg yolks
1 teaspoon white-wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, plus more for serving
1/2 cup mild-flavored extra-virgin olive oil, warmed up
Zest from 1 Ruby Red grapefruit, peeled into long strips, plus 1/4 cup juice
1 quart fish or chicken broth, preferably homemade or canned low-sodium
1 small red onion, cut into eighths, or 4 red cipollini onions, peeled
1 small fennel bulb, sliced lengthwise into 6 pieces, plus 2 stalks with fronds
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
10 black peppercorns
4 skinless salmon fillets, preferably wild (about 4 ounces each)
1 baguette, sliced and toasted, for serving

Steps:

Whisk together continuously over medium heat until warmed through and slightly thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. (Do not let curdle; if mixture begins to heat too quickly, lower heat.)

Tips:

  • When poaching the salmon, use a large saucepan so that the fish has plenty of room to swim. This will help ensure that the salmon cooks evenly and gently.
  • To prevent the salmon from sticking to the pan, place a piece of parchment paper on the bottom of the saucepan before adding the fish.
  • Use a slotted spoon to carefully remove the salmon from the poaching liquid. This will help prevent the fish from breaking up.
  • To make the hollandaise sauce, use fresh egg yolks and lemon juice. This will give the sauce a rich, creamy flavor.
  • Be sure to whisk the sauce constantly over low heat until it thickens. This will prevent the sauce from curdling.
  • If the sauce does curdle, simply remove it from the heat and whisk in a tablespoon of cold water. This will help to smooth out the sauce.
  • Serve the poached salmon with the hollandaise sauce immediately. This will ensure that the fish is hot and flaky and the sauce is warm and creamy.

Conclusion:

Poached salmon with hollandaise sauce is a classic dish that is both elegant and delicious. This dish is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal.
