INSTRUCTIONS
In a small bowl combine well the butter, the parsley, the anchovy paste,
and freshly ground black pepper to taste and reserve the anchovy butter,
covered. In a saucepan combine the onion, the vinegar, the sugar, the
peppercorns, the coriander seeds, the mustard seeds, the salt, and 4 cups
water, bring the mixture to a boil, and simmer if for 15 minutes. Strain
the mixture through a fine sieve into a deep heavy skillet just large
enough to hold the salmon in one layer. Add the salmon, bring the liquid to
a simmer, and poach the salmon, covered, for 8 to 10 minutes, or until it
just flakes. Transfer the salmon steaks with a slotted spatula to plates,
letting the poaching liquid drain off, and divide the reserved anchovy
butter between them.
Serves 2.
