Poached Salmon

Ingredients:
2 cups vegetable or fish stock
1 piece (5 oz) salmon fillet with skin

Procedure:
1. Put the stock in a medium-size saucepan and bring up to a simmer.
2. Add the salmon, flesh side down and cook at a very gentle simmer for 7 minutes.
3. Turn the salmon over and cook until the fish is opaque all the way through and breaks into large flakes when pressed with a fork about 2-3 minutes longer. (Thicker pieces of salmon may take a few more minutes.)
4. Transfer the salmon to a plate and let it cool slightly before peeling off the skin and scraping away and dark meat (this has a strong flavor that may be a bit much for babies). Break into large flakes to serve.
