👨🍳 Instructions
- In a shallow pan, combine water (or vegetable broth), dry white wine, lemon slices, fresh dill sprigs, a bay leaf, black peppercorns, and a sliced shallot to create your poaching liquid.
- Bring the liquid to a gentle simmer over medium heat; do not boil. Season the liquid lightly with salt.
- Carefully add the Scottish salmon fillet to the simmering liquid, ensuring it is mostly submerged.
- Reduce heat to low, cover the pan, and gently poach the salmon for 8-12 minutes, or until cooked through and flaky. Cooking time depends on thickness.
- Carefully remove the salmon from the liquid using a slotted spatula.
- Serve immediately with a wedge of fresh lemon and a sprinkle of fresh dill.
