The biggest note I get about wild salmon is that it’s dry and it’s hard to cook. This is my foolproof to way make it that is easy and melts in your mouth!

Heat a pot with water. Add dashi ingredients (water, dried shiitake mushrooms, rinsed and scrubbed scallions, dried kombu, thinly sliced ginger knob, and 2-3 tbsp tamari) and bring to a boil. Then simmer and cover for about 30 minutes. Gently add the salmon filets into the water until fully covered. Cover and poach for about 10 minutes. Then add the baby bok choy and cover again for another 2-3 minutes. Transfer salmon and bok choy onto a shallow bowl. Cover with more broth from the pot. Top with 1 tbsp tamari, 1 tsp toasted sesame oil, chili oil, chili crisp, and sesame seeds. Enjoy!
