POACHED SALMON WITH TARRAGON SAUCE



Poached Salmon with Tarragon Sauce image

I prepare this poached salmon when she doesn't want to heat up the kitchen. Fixing the sauce first allows the herb seasonings to meld and enhance the mild-tasting steaks. Use two slotted spatulas to remove the poached fish from the pan. Poached fish is delicate and tends to break apart easily. -Laura Lunardi, West Chester, Pennsylvania

SOUR CREAM & DILL SAUCE TO SERVE WITH SALMON



Sour Cream & Dill Sauce to Serve With Salmon image

I prefer to make this sauce ahead to give the flavors time to blend together. I've usually served this with salmon baked with a combination of white wine, tarragon, dill & shallots or scallions. I'm posting this the way it originally came to me, but nowadays I would omit the salt and let others add it at the dinner table.

POACHED SALMON WITH TARRAGON SAUCE AND FINGERLING POTATOES



Poached Salmon with Tarragon Sauce and Fingerling Potatoes image

Categories     Potato     Poach     Mayonnaise     Salmon     White Wine     Tarragon     Parsley     Gourmet

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

For sauce
2 large bunches fresh tarragon (about 1 ounce total)
1 large bunch fresh chives (about 2/3 ounce)
1 large shallot
3/4 cup fresh flat-leafed parsley leaves
1 cup mayonnaise
1/3 cup rice vinegar (not seasoned)
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
For fish
2 1/2 cups dry white wine
2 1/2 cups water
a 2 1/2- to 3-pound salmon fillet with skin
1 1/2 pounds pink fingerling or other new potatoes
Garnish: 1/2 pound cooked sugar snap peas, diagonally cut into thirds

Steps:

  • Make sauce
  • Pick enough tarragon leaves to measure 1/2 cup (do not pack). Chop enough chives to measure 1/3 cup. Coarsely chop shallot. In a food processor puree tarragon, chives, and shallot with remaining sauce ingredients until smooth and season with salt and pepper. Sauce may be made 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Bring sauce to cool room temperature before serving.
  • Make Fish
  • In a deep 10-inch skillet bring wine and water to a simmer, covered. Cut salmon into 6 pieces and season with salt and pepper. Submerge 3 salmon pieces, skin sides down, in simmering liquid (add hot water if necessary to just cover salmon) and poach at a bare simmer, covered, 8 minutes, or until just cooked through. Transfer cooked salmon with a slotted spatula to a platter to cool and poach remaining salmon in same manner. When salmon is cool enough to handle, peel off skin and if desired with a sharp knife scrape off any dark meat. Salmon may be cooked 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Bring salmon to cool room temperature before serving.
  • Assemble
  • Cut potatoes lengthwise into 1/8-inch-thick slices. In a steamer set over boiling water steam potatoes until just tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Spoon sauce onto 6 plates and arrange some potatoes in a circle, overlapping slightly, on top of sauce . Season potatoes with salt and arrange salmon on top of potatoes. Garnish salmon with peas.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest salmon possible. Fresh salmon will have a bright pink color and a mild, fishy smell. Avoid salmon that is dull in color or has a strong, fishy odor.
  • Use a variety of herbs and spices to flavor the salmon. Dill and tarragon are classic herbs that pair well with salmon, but you can also experiment with other herbs and spices, such as basil, thyme, rosemary, or paprika.
  • Don't overcook the salmon. Salmon is a delicate fish that can easily be overcooked. Cook it until it is just cooked through, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Serve the salmon with a variety of sides. Salmon can be served with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice. You can also serve it with a sauce, such as a dill sauce or a tarragon sauce.

Conclusion:

Dill and tarragon are two classic herbs that pair well with salmon. They can be used to flavor the salmon in a variety of ways, such as by adding them to a marinade, a rub, or a sauce. Salmon is a healthy and delicious fish that can be cooked in a variety of ways. It is a good source of protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and other nutrients. When cooked properly, salmon is a flaky and flavorful fish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages.
