    A FISH SHORT STORY

    EPILOGUE

    The reciepe compliments of Viking Cruises where it is called "Chairman's Choice: Poached Salmon & Cucumber Salad."

    We first tasted this succulent way to enjoy salmon on a Viking Cruise from Moscow to St. Petersburgh and it remains a favorite. The Chive Sauce is a key feature that makes this dish a winner.

    Viking claims this is a dish that Norwegians have loved for generations.

    POACHED SALMON & CUCUMBER SALAD

    Ingredients

    POACHED SALMON

    4 salmon filets totalling 6 oz

    PICKLED CUCUMBER

    1 cucumber
    Salt
    2 Tablespoons sugar
    3 1/2 oz water
    8 1/ oz rice wine
    Vinegar

    CHIVE SAUCE

    1 pint heavy cream
    2 3/4 oz butter
    Salt and pepper
    1 Tablespoon fresh chives

    DIRECTIONS

    Bring a pan of salted water to a boil, then turn down the heat and add the salmon filets. Allow to poach for about 8 minutes until just tender.

    Meanwhile prepare the Chive Sauce. Bring the cream to a boil in a saucepan, then reduce the heat and allow to simmer until reduced by half. Whisk in the butter, then add the fresh chives and season with salt and pepper to taste.

    For the pickled cucumber side dish (which should be. prepared first as it will need to be placed in the refrigerator to cool for half an hour before serving) peel the cucumber and slice into disks. Sprinkle the disks with salt and allow to marinate for 5 minutes. Squeeze out the liquid. Mix the sugar, water, and vinegar, pour over the sliced cucumber, and place in the refrigerator for half an hour. Drain and serve.

    OPTIONAL PAN FRIED POTATOES

    Use red potatoes or other small potatoes. Boil them in water until just slightly soft or otherwise just slightly soften them by use of the microwave. Slice the potatoes and pan fry them in butter seasoned with fresh lemon juice, salt and pepper.
