    This recipe was delicious and easy!! I have never tried poached slamon because I thought it would be too hard. This is a very easy recipe!!! the salmon turned out perfect. I had a thick cut so I had to leave it in a little longer than eight minutes to be done. The sauce absolutely is the finishing touch. We used as a dip also. Leftovers were awesome!

    This has now become a staple every week in my house. My husband balked at the idea of a yogurt sauce but one bite convinced him otherwise. I couldn't find any plain yogurt so I used light lemon yogurt instead, the result was HEAVENLY. The sauce alone would have been perfection alone but paired with the cool delicate flavor of the salmon... well... I can not describe the result without being obscene. I have never had a dinner where I smiled while eatting due to the food until I tried this. It made up for the long wait time and long preparation.

    I love poached salmon. This was my first time making it that way. Did not care for the yogurt goo though. It was alright but missing alot of punch. I prepared the Tzatziki as stated, even let it sit in the colinder for three hours. Firmed up great but all in all it wasn't what I expected.

    Thanks for the cooking venture...

    Easy to manage, weeknight dinner that is light and refreshingly cool. I put a few more things into the poaching liquid (peppercorns, dry chilies, and I definitely made more than a cup of yogurt sauce. I served the fish with some steamed carrots and a bit of rice. Everyone loved it.

    A fantastic and easy recipe..Make sure you don't overpoach the salmon by cooking it too long or with too strong heat. It is so delicious in the summer..Eat it cold....I serve it with mashed potato and celeriac.

    My Grandmother loved poached salmon, and I made this as a tribute to her when we had family over following her memorial service. This recipe was easy and delicious. I did not use the bay leaves or the scallion, but I do not think anything was missing in the flavor. The Lemon Mint Tzatziki was just awesome and am looking for other ways to use it as a side.

    This tzatziki recipe is great with numerous dishes. I use it with lamb and beef as well as a dip for veggies and pita. It's light but very flavorful.
