method
1. Put the salmon in a saucepan with the fish stock, wine and mace. Add salt and pepper to taste.
2. Bring the liquid to simmering point and simmer gently for 10-15 minutes or until the fish is just cooked through.
3. Using a slotted spoon and a fish slice, transfer the fish to a large plate. Remove the skin and bones and return them to the stock in the saucepan.
4. Transfer the skinned fish to a warmed serving dish and keep hot.
5. Simmer the stock and fish trimmings for 10 minutes, then strain into a clean pan. Simmer gently, uncovered, until reduced by half.
6. Stir in the shallots or chives and the parsley and remove from the heat.
7. In a small bowl, blend the butter with the flour. Gradually add small pieces of the mixture to the stock, whisking thoroughly after each addition. Return to the heat and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring.
8. Pour the sauce over the fish and serve at once.
