Steps:
- Mix all ingredients except water and salmon in a small bowl and set aside at room temperature.
- When ready to cook the salmon, bring the water to a boil in a stainless steel saucepan. Place the salmon steaks in the pan and bring the water back to a boil over high heat. (This will take about 2 minutes.) Immediately turn off the heat or slide the pan off the heat if using an electric stove, and let the salmon steep in the hot liquid for 5 minutes. (The steaks will be slightly underdone in the center; adjust the cooking time to accommodate thicker or thinner steaks and to satisfy taste preferences.)
- Remove the steaks from the liquid with a large spatula or skimmer, drain well, and place a steak on each of six warm plates. Sponge up any liquid that collects around the steaks on the plates with paper towels and spoon the sauce over and around the steaks. Serve immediately.
