Serves: 4 as an antipasti or 1-2 as part of a secondi
Directions:
Season the salmon pieces with salt and let sit for 10 minutes. Heat up the butter gently in the smallest pot that can hold the salmon in one layer covered by the butter. Add the bay leaves and a few drops of water and bring the butter to 130 degrees. Adjust the flame to keep the butter at this temperature throughout the cooking. Add the salmon pieces and stir to evenly cover the salmon. Cook until the salmon reaches 125 degrees, about 15-20 minutes.
To prepare the dish:
Remove the salmon with a slotted spoon and place on a warm plate.
To plate:
Sprinkle the fennel pollen all over the salmon and eat immediately. Would go great with tortillas, on a bruschetta or grits.
