Poached Salmon

5.0 ( 2 )

A simple light fish that can be made with slices of salmon or fillet salmon. It can be served as an appetizer with dill sauce on the side or as a main dish. This fish tastes better cold and tastier when it sits in its own juice overnight or for a few hours. It stays fresh and delicious for a couple of days, so it is a great recipe to serve on yom tov.

I make this salmon for shabbos all the time and it there are few recipes that combine taste and ease like this one. The salmon lasts well in the fridge as well.
