Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 4 salmon fillets (6 oz each)
  • 1/4 cup white miso paste
  • 3 tbsp mirin
  • 2 tbsp sake
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds

Method
 

  1. Whisk the miso paste, mirin, sake, brown sugar, and soy sauce in a saucepan over medium heat until smooth, then stir in the sesame oil off the heat.
  2. Coat the salmon in two-thirds of the glaze, reserving the rest, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Broil the salmon 6 inches from the heat for 6 to 8 minutes until the edges bubble and darken.
  4. Brush with the reserved glaze and broil another 2 to 3 minutes until caramelized and the fish flakes easily.
  5. Plate the salmon and top with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.

Notes

Plan for at least 30 minutes of marinating time before you cook, which isn't counted in the prep time above since it's mostly hands-off. If you want to get ahead, you can whisk the glaze and coat the salmon up to 8 hours before broiling.
