Ingredients

  • 4 6-ounce portions Salmon fillets
  • 3 tablespoons White miso paste
  • 2 tablespoons Mirin
  • 2 tablespoons Sake or dry white wine
  • 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, grated
  • 0.5 teaspoon Toasted sesame oil
  • 2 stalks Green onions, sliced(optional)
  • 1 teaspoon Toasted sesame seeds(optional)

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a small bowl, whisk together the miso paste, mirin, sake, sugar, soy sauce, ginger, and sesame oil until smooth.

  2. 2

    Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels to ensure the glaze adheres properly.

  3. 3

    Place the salmon in a shallow dish or a zip-top bag and pour the miso mixture over them, ensuring even coating.

  4. 4

    Marinate the salmon in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, though 2 hours is preferred for deeper flavor.

  5. 5

    Preheat your oven broiler to high and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil, lightly greasing it with oil.

  6. 6

    Place the salmon skin-side down on the baking sheet, wiping off excess marinade to prevent burning.

  7. 7

    Broil the salmon 6 inches from the heat source for 6-9 minutes, or until the top is charred and the fish flakes easily.

  8. 8

    Garnish with sliced green onions and toasted sesame seeds before serving.
