Preparation

  1. Place fish bones, onion, peppercorns and thyme in the water and boil for half an hour. Drain.
  2. Wrap salmon in cheesecloth. In a pan large enough to hold the salmon, bring court bouillon almost to a boil. Place the salmon in and cook, at just below the boil, for 10 minutes for each inch of the salmon’s thickness.
