DR. ANDREW WEIL'S EASY POACHED SALMON
This recipe is from Dr. Andrew Weil's book, 8 Weeks to Optimum Health. When I made this I used too small a pan to take all the vegetables and the salmon, so the tops of my salmon were not covered in liquid; this worked for us because DH is a sashimi connoisseur so he went for the least done piece. I also was surprised to discard the vegetables! I nibbled on the delicious carrot slices, though! And yes, this is an easy dish and the salmon came out just great! :)

Steps:
- Place carrot, onion, celery, lemon, parsley, and bay leaves (if using California bay leaves, just use half a large leaf) in saucepan.
- Top vegetables with the fish, cold water to cover, salt to taste, the wine, and the lemon juice. Bring the pot to a boil leaving it uncovered.
- Adjust heat to simmer and cook 5 minutes.
- Turn off heat and without stirring, allow to rest 10 minutes.
- Carefully remove to a serving platter; the salmon will be perfectly done. It is delicious served either hot or cold.
