284 g Atlantic salmon filet
240 ml water
55 g white onion
50 g celery
70 g carrot
150 ml Chablis white wine
2 g lemon peel
1 bay leaf
300 g zucchini
120 g red bell pepper
120 g yellow bell pepper
25 g shallot
1 g black peppercorns
10 ml lemon juice
240 ml champagne vinegar
5 g Dijon mustard
Sea salt, black pepper, olive oil to taste
Method
Tie the salmon filet gently so it cooks evenly and keeps an elegant shape during poaching.
In a shallow pan combine water, Chablis, onion, carrot, celery, bay leaf, lemon peel, and peppercorns. Bring to a gentle simmer.
Lay the salmon into the aromatic liquid, cover with parchment, and poach very gently until just tender.
Cut the zucchini into spaghetti strands and blanch briefly to preserve freshness and color.
Dice the red and yellow bell peppers and shallot to prepare the relish.
Whisk lemon juice, champagne vinegar, Dijon mustard, olive oil, salt, and pepper into a bright vinaigrette.
Toss the zucchini lightly, plate as a nest, top with the poached salmon, add bell pepper relish, and finish with lemon champagne vinaigrette.
Chef’s Note: Keep the poaching liquid below a boil at all times. This dish is about delicacy, freshness, and elegant acidity, so the salmon should remain moist and silky while the zucchini and peppers stay bright and crisp.
