Cold poaching

This way, your fish will be perfectly done without having to worry about overcooking it. Start by getting an 8-inch-wide pan or skillet. You’ll need water and a large strainer to strain the poaching liquid into a glass or a container. You’ll want to use a 3-quart or larger stockpot or saucepan to poach your salmon. Heat the water in the pot or pan until it’s simmering and the surface is steaming.
