4 cups water
2 cups white wine
1 lemon, sliced into thin rings, divided
4 each whole black peppercorns
1 sprig fresh dill, minced
1 bay leaf
2 (1 pound) salmon fillets
1 tablespoon honey
1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Pour water and wine into a large pot. Add 4 lemon slices, peppercorns, dill, and bay leaf; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat until the liquid is calm with tiny bubbles rising to the surface. Allow the mixture to simmer, uncovered, for 20 minutes.
