Poaching salmon is one of our favorite ways to cook salmon! Poached salmon cooks quickly and stays moist, flaky, and tender. The aromatics (lemon, shallot, fennel, and dill) are optional but add lots of delicious flavor. You can use water, broth, or a combination of water and white wine for the poaching liquid.
Ingredient:
- 4 skin-on salmon fillets, 6 ounces each
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 cup white wine or broth
- 1 lemon, sliced
- 1 shallot, sliced
- 1 medium fennel bulb, sliced
- 6 sprigs fresh dill or other fine herb like parsley, cilantro or mint
- Salt and fresh ground black pepper
