Baked Salmon Steaks with Hollandaise Sauce
Ingredients
| 6 salmon steaks, about 6 oz each | ||
| 4 tbs butter | ||
| kosher salt and black pepper to taste | ||
| lemon juice to taste | ||
| Hollandaise Sauce: | ||
| 3 tbs wine vinegar | ||
| 1-2 tbs water | ||
| 3 egg yolks | ||
| 1 and 1/2 cups unsalted butter, softened (3 sticks) | ||
| salt and white pepper to taste | ||
| Tarragon sprigs for garnish |
- Line two baking sheets with buttered foil and place the salmon on the foil. Dot each steak with a knob of butter and season with salt, pepper and lemon juice.
- Cover loosely with foil and bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 20-30 minutes, according to the thickness of the fish.
- Meanwhile, to make the sauce, put the vinegar and water in a saucepan and boil gently until reduced by half, then cool.
- Put the egg yolks and reduced vinegar liquid in a double boiler or bowl over a pan of gently simmering water and whisk until thick and fluffy.
- Gradually add the butter, a tiny piece at a time, whisking briskly after each addition until the piece has been absorbed.
- The final sauce should be the consistency of mayonnaise. Season to taste. If the sauce is too sharp, add a little more butter.
- Serve the salmon garnished with tarragon and accompanied by the hollandaise sauce.
