Follow The Directions

01

Step
3 mins

Toast Sesame Seeds: In a small, dry saucepan over medium heat, toast the sesame seeds, stirring constantly, until golden brown and fragrant (about 2-3 minutes). Be careful not to burn them! Transfer to a small bowl and set aside.

02

Step
2 mins

Prepare Miso Glaze: In a separate small bowl, whisk together the miso paste, mirin, soy sauce, minced ginger, and honey until smooth. Stir in the toasted sesame seeds.

03

Step
1 mins

Prepare for Broiling: Position an oven rack about 6 inches from the broiler and preheat the broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly grease with oil.

04

Step
1 mins

Glaze Salmon: Generously coat the salmon fillets with the miso glaze, ensuring all sides are well covered. Place the salmon skin-side up (if using skin-on fillets) on the prepared baking sheet.

05

Step
10 mins

Broil Salmon: Broil the salmon in the preheated oven, watching closely to prevent burning. Broil until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, about 8-12 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillets.

For extra flavor, marinate the salmon in the miso glaze for at least 30 minutes (or up to a few hours) in the refrigerator before broiling.
If you don't have mirin, you can substitute it with a dry sherry or a mixture of sake and a pinch of sugar.
Serve the broiled miso salmon with steamed rice, sauteed vegetables, or a fresh salad for a complete and balanced meal.
Garnish with extra sesame seeds and thinly sliced green onions for a beautiful presentation.
