Poached Whole Salmon

I practiced on several smaller fish before I tackled (hee!) this 17 pound fish. One of the things I learned is that the larger the fish the less problem you have with bones because they are larger as well and don't detach from the spine or hide as easily as the smaller finer bones in a smaller fish. The other thing I learned is that while this is a lot of work, it can be done the day ahead, chilled, and simply served room temp. That makes the event day quite easy.
My Dill Pollen Mayo is a superb compliment to this. I estimated 4 ounce portions and served it rather than letting people have at it without assistance. Worked perfectly!

Why all the negative comments??? This looks amazing whether it was poached or baked - well done you! This was just what I looking for - thank you.

[@michaelbliss3419]

Beautifully done . I would have loved to see how you moved it 😅. That's the hard part came out spectacular.

[@sergiolobato1798]

Nice, I personally would serve that with the shin on, but to each his own! Beautiful!

[@BuckMelanoma]

She used steam at a low temp over hours. Poached... Baked whole salmon is around 425 for 30 to 40 minutes or so. Baked

[@krisxcouture]

the head of the salmon is actually edible... the CHEEK!

[@nancyvictor3989]

Beautiful ❤❤❤

[@Kolenschopper]

That looks amazing! And it seems pink inside too, i would love to taste that.

[@mmmJellySandwich]

but it's not poached!

[@marie42ify]

Wonderful recipie. Please can you advise how long before a party its is safe to make ahead? Many thanks.

[@Otagoscholar]

Yummy! I Love Salmon!

[@ryanritchinocentes2977]

so you served it not hot?.. and it was not poached... It is baked..

[@trinisun]

Looks yummy :-)

[@lopan9748]

I am confused.... I mean, it looks delicious and all... but that is not a "poached" fish. Why make "how-to" youtube videos if you do not understand basic terms concerning the procedure? Again, it looks delicious, but why confuse people by using the term "poaching" when you did not poach anything?

[@enrikitiki]

You shoulda left the skin on! The head is definitely edible too, nothing should go to waste. Although this does look awesome!

[@memitaverland3593]

You should cool the salmon then peel it, much cleaner end result

[@tigerwa]

She baked the salmon she did not poach it!

[@beautifulsailor9439]

Okay so when she peeled the skin off of the salmon, and left the head on, it really looked like a seal. Im done.

[@jiranma]

Where's the liquid?

[@marinanikonova5683]

Why you dont show how it is standing on those metal thing? And how you moved it?...

[@trixieparty4224]

Marina Nikonova tighting it with the string makes the salmon to stand while cooking

[@paulrope7211]

Looks nice but this is baked salmon not poached

[@andyrossosaka]

Why did you say you poached it girl?

[@easterdm]

the inside color of this fish doesn't look very good. Maybe it's just the camera

[@roddy75232]

I like my fish grilled and hot. She put her hands all over the man.

[@Vincent2wice]

Poach - To cook in a boiling or simmering liquid. You did NOT poach this fish. Unless... you stole it from the African plains, severed it's tusks, and sold them for a profit

[@michouxoxoful]

Too bad you did not show the difficult parts like moving the salmon and actually poaching the fish!

[@StevieWeebieLee]

She really have to get a dictionary of what's poaching means.

[@dannyatherton8892]

The music in the background is not needed and your own mic is on minute clear and then we have a very quiet sound "hard to hear" Sorry but because of the above points your efforts we're wasted.

[@rickskzrx4910]

Did not poach! Fail!

[@lizmurphy6436]

That's not what I call "poached" salmon!

[@fletcherjerome5538]

Scrapping away the omega fat! 🤦🏽‍♂️

[@billraftery6668]

Terrible, baked , dry and overcooked, 3 hours is far too long, a tin of salmon would have been tastier.

[@Chi_Leung]

This is really scary looking.

[@gurmad911]

By the look of it, it's not that appetizing... Sorry.

[@mariterezbj]

Any sauce or dip for it...any recipe..thx u

[@cageybee777]

too much waste
