Yield Serves 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

Sauce
6 tablespoons chopped cornichons
3 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 cup crème fraîche or sour cream
Salmon
3 8-ounce bottles clam juice
3 cups dry white wine
10 whole peppercorns
8 fresh dill sprigs
6 lemon slices
8 6- to 8-ounce salmon fillets
Butter lettuce, lemon slices and fresh dill sprigs

Steps:

  • For Sauce:
  • Place cornichons, dill and juice in small bowl and stir to blend. Add crème fraîche and stir gently just until combined; do not overmix or sauce will thin out. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be made 2 days ahead. Cover; chill.)
  • For Salmon:
  • Combine first 5 ingredients in large, deep skillet; bring to simmer over medium heat. Simmer 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low. Add half of salmon, cover and simmer until just cooked through, about 7 minutes. Transfer to platter. Repeat with remaining salmon. Cover salmon; chill until cold. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Keep chilled.)
  • Line platter with lettuce. Top with salmon. Garnish with lemon slices and dill sprigs. Serve with sauce.

This recipe was easy to follow and the salmon turned out great! I didn't have any fresh dill on hand so I used dried dill instead, and it was still very flavorful. I will definitely be making this again.

This recipe is a keeper! The salmon was flaky and moist, and the dill crème fraîche sauce was the perfect complement. I served it over a bed of rice and it was a delicious and satisfying meal.

I love this recipe! The salmon is always cooked perfectly and the dill crème fraîche is so delicious. I like to serve it with a side of roasted vegetables and a glass of white wine.

This recipe was a disaster! The salmon was dry and overcooked, and the dill crème fraîche sauce was bland. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

The salmon was a bit overcooked for my taste, but the dill crème fraîche was delicious. I think I'll try poaching the salmon for a shorter amount of time next time.

I've made this recipe several times now and it's always a hit! The salmon is always cooked perfectly and the dill crème fraîche is so delicious. I like to add a bit of lemon zest to the sauce for a brighter flavor. My guests always rave about this di
