Poached Salmon

Description

This recipe is from a friend. The poaching liquid really imparts a nice flavor to the salmon. I like to serve with Vegetable Galaxy, Vegetable Galaxy, and rice. Prep and cooking time does not include 1/2 hour for liquid to blend.

Directions

  • Combine all ingredients except salmon in a saucepan large enough to hold the salmon steaks.
  • Add water to make liquid 1 1/2 to 2 inches deep.
  • Let stand 1/2 hour to blend flavors in the liquid.
  • Bring liquid to a boil and reduce heat to a very slow simmer.
