Quick Poached Salmon with Dill Mustard Sauce image

This is an easy, elegant, wonderful salmon dish with a no-cook sauce. It really doesn't get much easier. I love it best on swelteringly hot summer days. Fresh steamed asparagus goes very well with this, and the sauce tastes good on it as well.

COLD POACHED SALMON WITH DILL MUSTARD SAUCE



Cold Poached Salmon With Dill Mustard Sauce image

The centerpiece of a summer solstice menu created in 2005 for The Times, this dish alludes to gravlax - the Scandinavian dish of cured salmon - with the spices used to poach the salmon and the sweet mustard sauce. The cooking technique here yields the most tender flesh you may ever encounter with salmon.

Categories     seafood, main course

Time 30m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 small bunch fresh dill
1 whole salmon (wild, if possible), about 6 pounds, cleaned and scaled (or substitute a center-cut section of a larger salmon)
1 tablespoon salt
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons yellow mustard seeds
1 teaspoon black peppercorns
1 onion, peeled and quartered
3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
1 cup sour cream
3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
3 tablespoons chopped dill
1/2 teaspoon salt, or as needed
1 generous bunch dill
2 lemons, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • To poach salmon, begin by placing the small bunch of dill inside cavity of the salmon, and put salmon in a fish poacher or a large roasting pan. (If necessary remove head to fit salmon in pan.) Cover with water, and add salt, sugar, mustard seeds, peppercorns and onion. Place over high heat, and bring to a boil. Turn salmon over, and cook 10 minutes. Turn off heat, and let salmon cool in water for about an hour.
  • To make sauce, whisk together the mustard and brown sugar in a small pitcher. Add sour cream and vinegar, and whisk until smooth. Mix in the chopped dill, and season with salt. Cover, and refrigerate until serving.
  • To serve, remove salmon from poaching liquid and lay on large sheet of parchment or waxed paper. Remove skin from top, gently peeling it away, along with fins. Carefully lift top layer of salmon in one long fillet, removing it from backbone and transferring it to a large platter.
  • Lift backbone off fish in one piece, and pick out any other visible bones. Turn fish over, and remove skin as before. Then place second fillet alongside the first on platter. Arrange leafy sprigs of dill between fillets, and drizzle sauce on top. Scatter lemon wedges around edges of plate. Pass pitcher of sauce separately.

Provided by Mulligan

Categories     Easy

Time P1DT30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 salmon fillets, unskinned
1 bunch fresh dill
1/2 tablespoon peppercorn
1 1/2 tablespoons salt
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon mustard
1/2 teaspoon sugar
salt
pepper
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
4 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 lemon, untreated

Steps:

  • Put fish into a shallow bowl, skin down, pull out remaining bones with a pair of tweezers.
  • Wash about 2/3 of the dill, then chop it finely (stalks and all). Coarsely grind peppercorns (pestle & mortar). Mix pepper, salt, sugar and sprinkle over the fish, then cover with dill.
  • Now the fish has to be weighed down with something heavy so it'll absorb the seasoning properly. You could first cover the fish with cling film, put a cutting board and a few heavy stones on top, for example. Put into the fridge and leave to marinade for at least 24 h. Check every now and then for liquid at the bottom of the bowl (spoon over the fish).
  • After 24 h, the fish is ready to be cut up into very thin slices: lift out of bowl, hold knife at a 45° angle (roughly) and cut the meat off the skin.
  • Prepare the mustard sauce: pour the marinade/juice that has accumulated in the bowl through a sieve, then add mustard, 1/2 teaspoon sugar, some salt & pepper and the white wine vinegar. Slowly pour in the oil while stirring the sauce. Now chop the rest of the dill (without the stalks) and add it to the mixture.
  • Serve with lemon wedges and white bread.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, high-quality salmon. Look for salmon that is bright in color and has a firm texture. Avoid salmon that is dull or has any off-odors.
  • Poach the salmon gently. Do not boil the salmon, as this will overcook it and make it tough. Instead, simmer the salmon in a gently simmering liquid until it is just cooked through.
  • Use a flavorful poaching liquid. The poaching liquid is what will flavor the salmon, so make sure to use a liquid that is flavorful and aromatic. Some good options include water, white wine, fish stock, or court-bouillon.
  • Add herbs and spices to the poaching liquid. Herbs and spices will help to flavor the salmon and make it more aromatic. Some good options include dill, parsley, bay leaves, peppercorns, and lemon zest.
  • Chill the salmon thoroughly before serving. This will help to firm up the salmon and make it easier to slice.
  • Serve the salmon with a flavorful sauce. A good sauce will help to enhance the flavor of the salmon and make it more enjoyable to eat. Some good options include dill mustard sauce, tartar sauce, or hollandaise sauce.

Conclusion:
