Poached Salmon With Truffles And Shrimp In Cream Sauce Recipes

QUICK POACHED SALMON WITH DILL MUSTARD SAUCE

Steps:

• In a small bowl, blend the plain yogurt, Dijon mustard, honey, lemon juice, and dill. Cover, and refrigerate until serving.
• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, place the salmon in the white wine and water. Adjust the amount of water as necessary to just cover the fish. Sprinkle with shallots. Cover the saucepan, and cook 10 to 12 minutes, until salmon is easily flaked with a fork. Drain, and serve with the yogurt sauce.

POACHED SALMON WITH SHRIMP AND CRAB CHEESE SAUCE

Steps:

• In a large skillet (I use my electric skillet), simmer chicken broth, celery pieces (about 3 inches long) and onion slices.
• I use the vegetable pieces to make sort of a"trivit" under the salmon, so make them chunky.
• Simmer for about 15 minutes.
• Lay the fillet over vegetables, tucking under the tail end and continue to simmer until done through, about 30 minutes.
• Make sure it is flaky and done all of the way through by seperating the fish with a fork.
• If it is still bright orange, simmer longer.
• Meanwhile make the sauce by melting the butter then adding the flour.
• Cook for about 1 minute, then gradually add the milk.
• Heat through but do not boil.
• Once hot, gradually add the cheese and stir until it is all melted.
• Add the crab and shrimp, heating gently until hot.
• Remove the fish from the skillet and discard the broth and vegetables.
• Serve the fish and sauce seperately as some like more sauce than others.
