I'm hosting a 60th anniversary celebration for my in-laws this Sunday at my
house. We're bringing them over for a rare trip out of the assisted living facility they are in. I just got a request for poached Salmon from my FIL, as it is one of my MIL's favorite dishes, and he thinks it will help her better enjoy the event (she has fairly progresses Alzheimer's). I've made it a few times in the past, but always with individual portions of salmon fillet. I'd like to do a whole side of salmon to have enough to feed a dozen, but haven't found any recipes for preparing it that way. All the recipes involve either a whole fish or individual portions of fillet. Is there a reason I shouldn't poach a whole side? It would make the flow go much better to not have to mess with trying to poach a whole fish, and I think the presentation of a side (or two) would be much nicer than a pile of fillets. There's also the time factor. I'm making 3 other dishes for the party and some of them a re pretty involved. Also any favorite dill or tarragon sauce recipes? TIA, Jon |

Apart from getting a dish large enough, poached cold salmon with home-made mayonnaise or aoli, some boiled new potatoes and a green salad with good tomatoes was one of the things that Scotland always did well, despite my comments about comparing Scottish and French cooking! -- James Silverton Potomac, Maryland Email, with obvious alterations: not.jim.silverton.at.verizon.not |

It worked for us. Grilling time for a whole side is not going to change. It has to do with the thickness of the salmon, not the total weight of the fish fillet. Fish is different from cooking other meats: Grilled Salmon Fillet with dill and lemon: http://i40.tinypic.com/2088s9g.jpg 24 oz. Salmon Fillet 1/4 cup dry vermouth juice from 1 large lemon 1 tbs. dried lemon peel 1 tbs. dried dill weed 1/4 tsp black pepper 1 thinly sliced lime Mix lemon juice and vermouth and pour over salmon fillet in a shallow dish. Sprinkle the dill weed, lemon peel and black pepper over the fish and then layer the lime slices over that. Cover fairly tightly with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator to marinate for about 2 to 4 hours. Sauce: Mix: 1/4 cup dry vermouth Juice from one lemon 1 bunch of thinly sliced scallions/green onions (pre-cooked) 2 tbs. dill pickle relish 2 tsp. dried dill weed 1 cup sour cream Mix well and let sit in the refrigerator until the fish is done. Remove salmon from marinade (try to keep the lime layer intact) and grill for 5 minutes. I use an electric grill that closes so cooks top and bottom at the same time. Re-heat sauce by microwaving for 3 minutes, and layer over the salmon. Sides for this in the pic were steamed veggies with lemon pepper including pattypan squash, sliced carrots and broccoli, and the background was peeled, sliced and steamed yam. http://i40.tinypic.com/2088s9g.jpg -- Peace!

I was avoiding doing a whole fish as it seemed a lot more complex and my time is at a premium, but you make it sound pretty easy.

Surely people know salmon has bones you need to avoid? To remove all the pin bones you'd have to wreck the fish, so the spine is the most you could do anyway. |

Bones are always an issue with salmon. I braise salmon filets or sides with the skin on and bones in and then when it is cooked, I remove the skin and pull out all the main vertebrae and associated little rib bones. If you start at one end (I forget whether it is head or tail) they pull right out basically in one piece. This works best if the fish was very fresh. I then look over the result, and pull out any individual bones I missed... spending no more than a minute or so at this. Some bones may remain. If any diners are not capable of noticing and avoiding the remaining stray bones, as cook you may want to pick over their portions extra careful. Steve |

This is one of the things that really annoys me--people who act like every piece of bone or skin or fat must be removed from everything before it hits their plate. Morons. |

If you buy a whole salmon, or if you buy salmon steaks, you will have to worry about bones. If you buy salmon that looks like this, there should not be any bones. http://www.toyojp.com/propic/200691812525871578.jpg The salmon will become thin towards the tail end of the fish, so just fold it under the fish to make that end a little thicker, this way it will not dry out when you cook it.

Morons. > Look Sunshine, I've never poached a whole salmon before. The few recipes I've seen online said to remove the backbone and pin bones. That's why I asked. Personally, I don't worry about bones in fish, but I thought maybe there was a good reason. Take a pill. Jon |

Yes, this is why I suggested manually removing bones (post-cooking) from the salmon being served to sensitive individuals. Janet's suggestion of eating one side of the fish, then pulling out the bones, then eating the other side of the fish is a very good one, probably the least work, but might not work for all serving scenarios.

I use the standard West Bend electric wok, and cook it on a grate over water. I can season it on the grate, then place the grate over boiling water. Seasoning can be put on the fish or in the water, and it transfers. I use my wok a lot to cook fish, and it is good, because it will cook fragile types of fish without it falling apart. Might be an option for you. Perhaps you have a larger fry pan with lid and racks can be had at the 99 cent store cheap. Just an alternative. Steve |

At least salmon's bones are big enough that you can spit them out before you swallow. But that's another reason why I don't like freshwater fish... to many little bones you don't really know about until you swallow. Sea fish don't have those fine bones, at least the sea fish I eat don't. -- Forget the health food. I need all the preservatives I can get. |
