Miso Salmon

Miso Salmon is a popular Japanese dish that consists of salmon marinated in a miso sauce and then broiled or grilled. The miso sauce is made from a blend of miso (fermented soybean paste), sake, mirin (rice wine), and sugar, which is then cooked together until thickened. The salmon is brushed with the miso sauce and then broiled or grilled until cooked through. Miso Salmon is a savory, sweet, and umami-packed dish that is great served with steamed rice and vegetables.

This miso salmon is unbelievable! I used light miso, honey and garlic and the flavor combination was incredible! The salmon itself was cooked perfectly - buttery, juicy and flaky! A definite keeper in my meal repertoire.
