Categories     Fish     Poach     Healthy

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:

  • Choose the right salmon: Look for wild-caught salmon if possible, as it has a better flavor and texture than farmed salmon.
  • Use a good quality beer: The beer you use will impart flavor to the salmon, so choose one that you enjoy drinking. A light-bodied beer, such as a pilsner or wheat beer, is a good option.
  • Don't overcook the salmon: Salmon is a delicate fish, so it's important to cook it carefully. The best way to tell if the salmon is done is to insert a fork into the thickest part of the fish. If the fork comes out easily, the salmon is done.
  • Serve the salmon immediately: Salmon is best served immediately after it is cooked. You can serve it with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.

Conclusion:

Beer-poached salmon is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to cook salmon, as the beer helps to keep the fish moist and flavorful. If you are looking for a new way to cook salmon, I highly recommend trying this recipe.
