Instructions

  1. Prepare a sauté pan by filling it with enough water to cover the salmon fillets when added. Stir in the white vinegar, honey, and kosher salt.
  2. Place the salmon fillets into the pan, ensuring they are submerged by adding more water if necessary.
  3. Add the fresh dill sprigs, whole peppercorns, and bay leaf to the pan.
  4. Heat the pan over medium-high and bring the water to a gentle boil. Simmer the salmon for 5 to 10 minutes, keeping the water at a steady simmer.
  5. Check the salmon's internal temperature with an instant-read thermometer. Aim for 135 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit, then remove from heat.
  6. Carefully remove the salmon from the water with a spatula. Place on a plate, cover, and let rest for 4 minutes. Serve with chopped dill, cracked black pepper, and lemon wedges.
