Salmon in Master Stock with Wilted Spinach

This is a really delicious and super simple way to use Master Stock. Salmon, being an oily fish carries flavor really well and the richness of the fish combines beautifully with the salty and sweet combination of the stock. I like to flake the fish after it has finished being cooked as you see the dark edging where the stock has been absorbed by the fish and then the soft pink colored fish inside. Here it’s served with a very simple side of wilted spinach with chili and lime.

Serves 4
