STEAMED SALMON

Salmon is remarkably healthful. It is full of protein, vitamin A, and omega fatty acids, which are essential to the proper functioning of the heart and brain.

OVEN-STEAMED SALMON



Oven-Steamed Salmon image

This simple way to roast salmon brings spectacular results with hardly any worry on the cook's part. The Mediterranean cookbook author Paula Wolfert learned it from the French chef Michel Bras, and it rises and falls on the thinness of the sheet pan. A pan of water delivers enough moisture to steam the fish briefly at a low temperature, producing a final product that is soft and deliciously juicy. It adapts easily to almost any salmon fillet. Emily Kaiser Thelin, who includes it in her biography of Ms. Wolfert, "Unforgettable," says a center-cut of wild-caught Alaska king works best and suggests pairing it with a salad or cracked green olive relish.

Time 30m

Yield 1 to 8 servings, depending on the quantity cooked

Number Of Ingredients 5

Center-cut salmon fillets, preferably wild-caught Alaskan king or sockeye, 1-inch thick and of any size from 5 ounces to 2 1/2 pounds
Olive oil, for greasing
Flaky sea salt
Freshly ground black pepper
Snipped fresh chives, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack in the lower third of the oven and a second rack in the upper third. Heat the oven to between 225 and 275 degrees. Grease a thin sheet pan with olive oil.
  • Carefully place a frying pan of just-boiled water on the lower oven rack. Arrange the salmon on the prepared sheet pan, season generously with salt and pepper, and place on the upper oven rack. Bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 110 degrees for rare, 115 degrees for medium-rare, or 125 degrees for medium. This should take 10 to 12 minutes for 5-ounce fillets or 20 to 25 minutes for a 2 1/2-pound fillet. (The color of the salmon will not turn dull, and the texture will be very juicy.)
  • Transfer the salmon to a platter or one or more individual plates and season with more salt and pepper, if desired. Sprinkle with chives, if using, and serve.

MUSTARD SALMON WITH SPRING VEGETABLE STEW



Mustard Salmon With Spring Vegetable Stew image

Fresh wild salmon, which is available in spring and summer, is preferred for its superior flavor and brilliant color. Here, a large piece of boneless fillet is seasoned with crushed fennel seed, coarse black pepper and Dijon mustard, which contrast nicely with the salmon's sweetness. To accompany the salmon, a combination of spring vegetables is lightly simmered with butter for a French-style stew. Sizzling brown mustard seeds and green chile in oil - the technique called tadka in Indian cooking- supplies a welcome spicy finish.

Categories     dinner, seafood, main course

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 1/2 pounds boneless, skin-on center-cut salmon fillet, preferably wild or sustainably farmed
Kosher salt
1 teaspoon coarse-crushed fennel seed (use a mortar or spice mill)
1/2 teaspoon coarse-ground black pepper
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 medium fennel bulb, diced
1 pound medium asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1-inch lengths
4 ounces sugar snap peas, topped, tailed and halved crosswise (about 1 cup)
3/4 pound English peas in the pod, shucked (about 1 cup)
5 ounces cauliflower, cut into tiny florets (about 2 cups)
6 medium scallions, white and green parts, sliced at an angle in 1/4-inch lengths
1 tablespoon safflower oil or other vegetable oil
1 teaspoon brown mustard seeds
1 serrano chile, finely chopped, or less, to taste
1 tablespoon chopped tarragon
2 tablespoons chopped flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375 degrees. Sprinkle salmon lightly on both sides with kosher salt. Place skin-side down in a low baking dish. Sprinkle top of fish with fennel and black pepper. Smear mustard evenly over the surface. Leave for at least 10 minutes to absorb seasoning and come to room temperature.
  • Bake salmon, uncovered, just until white juices begin to surface at sides and top, 10 to 15 minutes, depending on thickness. Remove and let rest 5 minutes. (Salmon should be perfectly cooked, still moist at center.)
  • As salmon cooks, make the vegetable stew: Set a Dutch oven or wide, heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Melt butter, then add the fennel. Season lightly with salt. Let fennel cook without browning, stirring frequently until just done, about 5 minutes. Add asparagus, sugar snap peas, shucked peas, cauliflower, scallions and a small pinch of salt. Stir to combine and add ¼ cup water. Raise heat to high and cover pot. Cook for 5 minutes, until vegetables are tender-crisp and just done (residual heat will cook them further). Turn off heat and transfer vegetables to a serving dish.
  • In a tiny skillet, heat oil over medium-high. When oil is wavy, add mustard seeds and serrano chile, and stir together. When mustard seeds begin to sputter and pop, pour contents of skillet over the vegetable stew. Top with tarragon and parsley.
  • For each serving, place a piece of salmon on a warmed plate. Spoon some vegetables over and around salmon. Pass remaining vegetables at the table.

Yield Serves 1

Number Of Ingredients 0

Steps:

  • Place salmon fillet on a sheet of foil large enough to wrap around with extra space ( like a metallic pasty!)
  • Place the bay leaves on top of the salmon along with mixed herbs, salt and pepper
  • slice the onion into half moons and put on top of the salmon with the lemon wedge
  • fold foil over salmon leaving a small hole at the top and place in a steamer
  • Put the new potatoes into a pan of boiling water with the salmon in the steamer above
  • boil and steam for 25 minutes
  • Serve hot or cold with a crunchy salad and a light french dressing

Tips:

  • Choose the right salmon: Select wild-caught salmon for its superior flavor and health benefits. If using farmed salmon, opt for one that's sustainably raised.
  • Prep the salmon properly: Remove the skin and pin bones from the salmon fillets. Cut the fillets into bite-sized pieces or leave them whole if preferred.
  • Season the salmon: Season the salmon with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices or herbs. For a flavorful twist, try marinating the salmon in a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, and herbs before cooking.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: Don't limit yourself to just one or two vegetables in your stew. Mix and match different types of vegetables to create a colorful and flavorful dish. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, and tomatoes.
  • Add some liquid: Stews need a liquid base to simmer in. Water is the most basic option, but you can also use broth, wine, or even coconut milk for a richer flavor.
  • Simmer gently: The key to a good stew is to simmer it gently over low heat. This allows the flavors to develop and the vegetables to soften without overcooking.
  • Taste and adjust seasonings: Once the stew is done, taste it and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or herbs to taste.

Conclusion:

With these tips in mind, you're sure to create a delicious and satisfying stewed salmon dish that will impress your family and friends. Experiment with different ingredients and flavors to find your perfect combination. Happy stewing!
