Instructions
- 1
Combine the water, 1/2 tsp salt, and bay leaves in a medium saucepan and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Slide the salmon fillet in skin-side down, reduce the heat to low, and poach until the salmon reaches 145°F (63°C) on an instant-read thermometer at the thickest part, about 10–12 minutes.

Transfer the salmon to a plate and let it rest for 10 minutes. Discard the poaching liquid and bay leaves. Once cool enough to handle, peel away and discard the skin, then flake the flesh into large chunks with a fork.
