St. Patrick's Day Recipes - Irish River Poached Salmon
Irish Food Ideas - Main Course Dishes - Meats

Home > Holidays > St. Patrick's Day > Irish Recipes > Main Courses > Irish River Poached Salmon

Salmon is a favorite of the Irish and can be found in numbers in the Irish river. Be sure to use a saucepan that the fish just fits into. If poached in a pan that is too large the salmon will loose much of its flavor in the water during simmering. Also remember to keep whisking the sauce continuously while it's cooking. This will keep the sauce from becoming to thick or scrambling and becoming lumpy.
