Mexican salsa
chopped onions, tomatoes,peppers(maybe spicey)cilantro
salt and pepper to taste
Pour over, freshly made.Pretty too.Got a recipe for a sauce to go with Salmon?
a little butter with parsley and garlic is what i use .....
I have 2 suggestions.
1) sautee garlic in butter till golden brown then add 3 tbsp of a dry white wine(Riesling) per portion of fish. Then salt to taste and some dill or rosemary as garnish if you like.
2)sautee ginger with olive oil till golden brown. remove pieces of ginger(many people don't like the intensive taste when they bite into it). Per portion of fish, 2 cherry tomatoes halfed and 2 tbsp of coconut milk mixed and let simmer for 5 minutes. Salt to taste.
In addition to that above: you can tweak by adding different spices such as paprika, garlic, oregano, parsley, and even a little lemon juice. Also the flour should be mixed in when the milk is cold, to keep from clumping...then procede to heat...
finely chopped onions, finely chopped dill pickles (or substitute capers) mixed in mayonaise. Sometimes simple is best. Another thing that is very good on salmon and also many other kinds of fish is (fanfare here) butter. Just plain old butter. butter, butter, butter. I LOVE butter and even sometimes eat stuff with my butter. Like a little bread or some crackers make butter taste very good. Popcorn can improve the taste of the butter a little. It took me awhile to find out I don't like lobster and crab all that much but just ate it as an excuse to have some butter. buter butter butter Yes. But trust me and try some with your salmon. They serve it at fisherman's wharf this way.with plain old boiled potatoes.
I agree with the white sauce idea, but try one with lemon and tarragon, its a really nice combiation of spicy herb and lemony sour thats just amazing with salmon, though a nice hollindaise can be even better if your not too worried about the calories. It really depends on what your own personal tastes are
White Sauce goes very well with Salmon. There are many recipes you can find on the web. Here is one of them:
Ingredients:
2 cups milk
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
salt
white pepper
Method:
Warm milk in a saucepan over low heat. In a separate heavy-based saucepan, melt butter. Add flour all at once and cook until bubbly.
Whisking constantly, gradually add milk.
Continue whisking until sauce thickens; cook 2 to 3 minutes over low heat, stirring constantly, until the consistency is rich and creamy. Season with salt and white pepper.
Serve hot with lightly-cooked vegetables or with fish dishes.
Filets de saumon sauce au fenouil
2 lb Salmon fillets,boneless
2 tbl Olive oil
1/2 cup Water
5 tbl Butter,room temp.
1/8 tsp Nutmeg
1/8 tsp Cayenne
3/4 lb Head of fennel
Preheat the broiler (You can poach or bake if you prefer.)
Carefully inspect the fish to determine if any bones remain. Using a pair of pliers, carefully pull away and discard the bones. Cut the fillets into 4 equal portins, either rectangular or square in shape. Sprinkle with the oil and rub to coat on both sides. Set aside.
Trim the fennel and cut into 1/4-in. cubes. There should be about 1 1/2 cups. Put the fennel in a saucepan and add the water a 1 tbsp of the butter. Cook 5 min.
Pour the fennel mixture into the container of a food processor or blender and add the remaing butter. Process to a very fine puree. Ther should be about 1 1/4 cups. pour the puree into a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Add the nutmeg and cayenne and stir. Let simmer about 3 min.
Meanwhile, place the salmon pieces under the broiler about 4-in.
from the source of heat. Cook about 4 min. on one side, turn and cook about 4 min. on the other side.
Transfer the salmon to a warm serving dish. Serve with hot fennel sauce spooned over or on the side.
Although Hollandaise with fresh dill is my passion this dish is second in line.
Hollandaise Sauce is a classic butter sauce which works beautifully with salmon. This is a very easy recipe to follow as it's all done in a blender:
