Preparation

In wide low pan large enough to hold fish in single layer, bring 3 cups (750 mL) water, onion, celery, lemon, parsley, salt and peppercorns to boil. Cover, reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes.

Add fish; poach just below simmer, covered, just until salmon flakes easily when tested, 5 to 7 minutes. With slotted spatula, transfer fish to plates; remove skin.

Salsa Verde: Meanwhile, soak bread crumbs in vinegar for 5 minutes; transfer to food processor. Add egg, parsley, capers, anchovies and garlic; chop finely. With motor running, drizzle in oil and 3 tbsp (50 mL) of the cooking liquid. Serve with salmon. Garnish with lemon wedges.
