Recipe came from Michael Johnson. I like to make this for dinner parties and everyone loves it. Serve with a nice rice pilaf and maybe some asparagus and some rolls. Ingredients:
2 (15 ounce) bottles low sodium soy sauce |
3/4 cup dark brown sugar |
2 tablespoons fresh minced ginger |
1/4 cup star anise |
1 1/2-2 lbs salmon fillets, thick end cut into 4 pieces when ready to cook |
chives or sliced scallion, stems (to garnish) |
Directions:
1. In a 12 inch saute pan with a lid combine soy sauce, brown sugar, ginger and star anise. 2. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to a simmer. 3. When at a very gentle simmer, add the salmon, skin side down (liquid should almost cover the fillets). 4. Slosh liquid over the fillets and cover the pan. 5. Poach for 6- 8 minutes, salmon should be medium rare in center. 6. Remove fillets and keep warm. 7. Bring liquid to a boil and reduce to half (should be light& syrupy). 8. Spoon some sauce on plate and put fillet on top. 9. Drizzle a little sauce on fillets and garnish with chives or scallions. |
