For the cucumber dill sauce:
1 cucumber, peeled, halved and seeded
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
4 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup low-fat sour cream
1 tablespoon dill
pinch cayenne pepper
white pepper to taste

For the salmon:
juice of 2 lemons
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon seafood seasoning
4 salmon fillets, about 4 or 5 ounces each
1 cucumber, peeled, halved and seeded

For the cucumber dill sauce: Puree the cucumber with the salt in a blender
or food processor. Place the cucumber puree in a bowl and stir in the
remaining ingredients.

For the salmon: Place the lemon juice, salt, seasoning, and about 3 cups
of water in a 10" pan. Add the salmon fillets and more water to cover the
salmon if necessary. Turn the heat to medium and bring the liquid to a
simmer. Remove the fillets when they are just opaque, about 2 to 3 minutes
depending on thickness. Place the fillets in the refrigerator to cool.
Thinly slice the cucumber and divide the slices between 4 plates. Place
each chilled salmon fillet on top of the sliced cucumbers. Drizzle the
sauce on the salmon and around the plate.
