Yield: Serves 8 |
Ingredients
1 bottle white wine
1 qt. water
1 ea. bay leaf
8 ea. peppercorns
2 tsp. salt
1 ea. celery stalk, roughly chopped
Parsley stems
8 ea. 5-7 oz. salmon fillets
Green Goddess Sauce
Preparation
Oven Temperature: 350-425 degrees
- In a large stock pot bring first 6 ingredients to a boil, on top of the stove. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes.
- Place the salmon in a deep baking dish large enough so the fillets are not crowded. Pour in enough poaching liquid to cover all of the fish. Cover with foil.
- For heat up oven: place in the center of the oven– Flame Height: 3.4
- For cool down oven: place inside doorway – Flame Height: OFF
- Rotate after 4 minutes. Uncover and check a piece after about 8 minutes. It should feel evenly firm to the touch.
- Remove pan from oven and gently lift the fillets out with a slotted spatula. Transfer to a baking sheet to drain.
- Cover and chill for several hours or overnight.
- Serve with Green Goddess Sauce.
The salmon could certainly be served warm right away or with another sauce or just a squeeze of lemon.
