This is a very basic recipe and easy to follow.
Ingredients
1-2 lb Salmon fillets, pin bones removed, if present, and skin on. Try for pieces that are thicker rather than flat.
½ cup Water
½ cup dry White Wine
1 Shallot sliced
3 springs of fresh Dill
2-3 whole Cloves
2-3 Black Peppercorns
2-3 Black Peppercorns
Salt
Black Pepper
Salt the salmon filet. Bring water, wine, shallot, dill, cloves and black peppercorns to a boil. Gently place the salmon, skin side down, into the pan, cover and cook on a very low simmer for 5-10 minutes depending on the thickness of the fillets.
Serve with fresh lemon slices and a bit of freshly ground black pepper. You can also chill and serve later. It makes great leftovers.
