Ingredients

Recipe

  • 350 salmon fillet skin on and pin boned (at room temperature, 800 gm
  • 3 cups rooibos tea strongly brewed
  • 1 lemon sliced
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 1 tsp black peppercorns whole
  • 1 Tbs sea salt flakes such as Maldon

Vinaigrette

  • 1 ½ tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp honey
  • ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 Tbsp white wine vinegar good quality
  • 1 Tbsp lemon juice I used a little of the lemon from the poaching liquid
  • Pinch black pepper freshly ground black pepper and sea salt flakes
  • Pinch sea salt freshly ground black pepper and sea salt flakes

Instructions

  1. Brew the tea and then add it to a wide-bottomed pot or pan along with the lemon, honey, salt, and peppercorns. Bring to a simmer. Add the salmon – skin side up and poach at a very gentle simmer for 5 – 8 minutes depending on the size.
  2. Flip the salmon about ¾ of the way through the cooking time. *at this point you can check if it is cooked through
  3. Remove the cooked salmon with a slotted lifter and allow it to drain on kitchen paper.
  4. Make the vinaigrette by placing all the ingredients in a jar and shaking vigorously until it thickened and emulsified. Drizzle the dressing over the warm fish and serve with steamed fresh asparagus and green leaves.
