Stop Pan Frying Your Fish! Try This easy Normandy Poach Instead

French Cooking Academy Podcast 3 months ago

Beschreibung

In today’s episode, I’m showing you how to prepare a beautiful fish fillet (I’m using salmon, but any firm white fish works) using the classic combination of real Normandy cider, cream, and shallots.

This is a "no-fuss" weekday meal that is simple enough for anyone to master but tastes like it came straight from a French bistro. We’ll poach the fish to perfection in cider and then turn those incredible cooking juices into a velvety, rich cream sauce.
