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.

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2-3 slices of slab bacon cut into 1/4" bits
1 tbsp. butter
1 scallion (red onion is bolder)
4 oz. ommegang wheat beer
8 oz. wild sockeye salmon filet.
liberal toss of sea salt

Steps:

  • 1. bring bacon, butter and scallion to temp at medium high in a sauté pan just browning the bacon before adding the butter. so long as the bacon is lean, it will leave some nice residue in the pan, the beer will deglaze this residue, that is a good thing... 2. Add the beer and allow it to just boil before reducing the heat to a strong simmer. 3.add the salmon (skin side down) to the just under boil beer-y goodness. toss some sea salt on there and cover the pan. after three minutes, the fish should just begin to firm, flip it so that it's skin up. three more minutes. pull the cover off. enjoy the fragrant steam. let the liquid reduce a spell, if you like your fish on the med-rare side, pull it and cover it lightly and set aside while you reduce. 4. reduce the liquid to about half it's volume. 5. pour that goodness on the fish. 6. eat like a champ.

Tips:

  • Select fresh, high-quality salmon fillets. Look for firm flesh with a vibrant color.
  • Use a well-seasoned cast iron or stainless steel skillet to evenly sear the salmon.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet when searing the salmon. This will prevent the salmon from cooking evenly.
  • Be patient when searing the salmon. Don't move it around in the skillet too much or it will break apart.
  • When poaching the salmon, use a flavorful liquid such as wheat beer, chicken broth, or vegetable broth.
  • Add aromatics such as herbs, spices, and vegetables to the poaching liquid to enhance the flavor of the salmon.
  • Gently simmer the salmon in the poaching liquid until it is cooked through. Avoid boiling the liquid, as this will toughen the salmon.
  • Serve the poached salmon immediately or chill it and serve it cold.

Conclusion:

Poaching salmon in wheat beer is a delicious and easy way to cook this healthy fish. The wheat beer adds a subtle sweetness and flavor to the salmon, while the poaching method keeps the salmon moist and tender. This dish can be served hot or cold, and it is perfect for any occasion.
