  • Yield Serves 4

Ingredients

    • 4 5-oz wild salmon fillets, skin on
    • 1 clove garlic, crushed
    • 1 carrot, sliced
    • 2 sprigs fresh thyme
    • 1 bay leaf
    • 3 black peppercorns
    • 1/2 cup white wine
    • Coarse salt

Directions

  1. In a small pan, arrange fillets in a single layer. Cover with water until fillets are just submerged. Remove fillets and set aside. Add garlic, carrot, herbs, peppercorns, and wine. Bring to a boil, season with salt, then turn off heat; add fillets skin-side down, and cook, covered, until slightly underdone in the center, about 10 minutes per inch of thickness. Reserve the poaching liquid and, once cool, combine with fillets.

Cook's Note

Poached salmon can be refrigerated for up to 3 days.
