Miso-Glazed Salmon
Ingredients
  • 2 (1 1/2-pound) salmon fillets, skin removed
  • 1 cup miso paste
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup prepared soy-ginger salad dressing
  • 1/4 cup sake
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 3 tablespoons seasoned rice vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons sesame seeds
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit, or 200 degrees Celsius, for optimal results.
2
In a large skillet, fill it with approximately one inch of water and bring the mixture to a rolling boil. This will help create a gentle, simmering environment for poaching your fish.
3
Once the water has reached its boiling point, carefully place the fish fillets into the skillet and cook for approximately two minutes on each side. This will ensure that the fish is cooked through, but still retains its tender texture.
4
Transfer the fillets to a broiler pan, allowing for even heat distribution and making it easier to achieve a perfectly cooked finish.
5
In a small bowl, combine the miso paste, brown sugar, salad dressing, sake, water, rice vinegar, sesame seeds, and sesame oil. Mix these ingredients together until they form a smooth, harmonious paste.
6
Using this marinade as a guide, spread the mixture evenly over the tops of your salmon fillets. This will not only add flavor but also provide a delicious, sticky glaze.
7
Bake the fillets in the preheated oven for approximately 15 minutes, or until they are almost cooked through. At this point, switch the oven to broil and continue cooking for an additional five minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly.
8
Finally, cut your fillets into portions and serve. Enjoy!
