Poached Salmon Tobiko bowls are a healthy and delicious meal that can be enjoyed any time of day. This recipe is a perfect combination of Japanese sticky rice, juicy salmon fillets, and mixed with the briny popping of tobiko (fish eggs) and fresh green onions. The process of poaching the salmon keeps it moist and tender, and allows the delicate flavors to shine through. This dish is a great choice for anyone looking for a filling and nutritious meal that is easy to prepare and delicious.

Instructions

1.	Rinse the rice in a small pot and add 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 18-20 minutes until all the water is absorbed and the rice is cooked.
2.	In a large pot, bring 4 cups of water and 1 tsp of salt to a boil. Add the salmon fillets. Cover and simmer for 5-10 minutes until the salmon is cooked through.
3.	Once the salmon is cooked, remove it from the pot and set aside. Reserve 2 cups of the poaching liquid and discard the rest.
4.	Divide the cooked rice into 4 bowls. Top each bowl with a portion of the poached salmon. Drizzle with some of the reserved poaching liquid.
5.	Sprinkle each bowl with green onions and tobiko, if desired.
6.	Serve and enjoy!
