Equipment

  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Small mixing bowl
  • Whisk

Ingredients
  

  • 4 salmon fillets 6 oz each, skin-on or skinless
  • 3 tbsp white miso paste
  • 2 tbsp mirin or rice vinegar + 1 tsp honey
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce low sodium preferred
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tsp fresh ginger grated
  • 2 tsp vegetable oil
  • 2 green onions sliced, for garnish
  • 1 tsp sesame seeds for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together miso paste, mirin, soy sauce, brown sugar, and grated ginger until smooth.
  • Pat salmon fillets dry and place on prepared baking sheet. Brush tops and sides generously with the miso glaze.
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes, until salmon flakes easily with a fork and glaze is caramelized and golden.
  • For extra caramelization, switch to broiler for the last 2-3 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.
  • Remove from oven and let rest 2 minutes. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds before serving.

Notes

Storage tip: Keeps in fridge for up to 3 days. Glaze can be made 3 days ahead. Leftover salmon is delicious cold in salads or grain bowls.
