BOILED SALMON

The drawn butter sauce can be made up to 2 hours ahead and kept warm in a double boiler or thermos. Add the parsley and lemon juice just before serving to maintain bright color and fresh flavor. The salmon is best cooked immediately before serving and does not hold well.

Store leftover salmon in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. The fish is excellent served cold or at room temperature for salads. Do not reheat in liquid; instead, bring to room temperature naturally or warm gently in a 250°F oven for 8-10 minutes. Store leftover butter sauce separately for up to 3 days and reheat gently over low heat, whisking to re-emulsify.
