Julia Child-Poached Salmon

Julia Child-Poached Salmon

Last night I served this with a salad of Romaine and Cucumber lightly dressed with Olive Oil and Balsamic Vinegar, along with Tandoori Naan Indian Bread.......

This is one of the easiest Poaching recipes I have ever tried, It's fool proof and delicious.

Poached Salmon Fillet

Ingredients:

8 6-8 oz. salmon fillets
1 tablespoon salt
¼ cup white-wine vinegar
Lemon wedges (optional)

1. Bring 2 quarts of water to the boil in a large skillet, adding salt and white-wine vinegar.

2. Slide in the salmon, bring back almost to the simmer, and poach just below the simmer for 8 minutes—the fish is done when just springy to the touch.

3. Drain, remove skin, and serve with lemon wedges, melted butter, or hollandaise sauce.
