Ingredients
- 4 pieces skinless salmon fillet (1 1/4 pounds total)
- kosher salt and black pepper
- 3 tablespoons cider vinegar
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoons prepared horseradish
- 1 seedless cucumber, sliced into half-moons
- 2 bunches watercress, thick stems removed (about 6 cups)

- Place the salmon in a large skillet; season with ½ teaspoon salt. Add 2 tablespoons of the vinegar and enough water to reach halfway up the salmon.

- Divide the watercress among bowls, top with the cucumber mixture and the salmon, and sprinkle with the dill.
