A delightful twist on the classic miso salmon, this recipe features a flavorful glaze and a crispy topping for a satisfying meal.
Combine the miso, soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, and ginger in a mixing bowl to create the marinade.
Mix until the sugar is fully dissolved for a smooth marinade.
Place the salmon fillets in the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 2 hours.
Turn the fillets halfway through for even marination.
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Ensure the oven is fully preheated for even cooking.
Remove the salmon from the marinade and place it on a baking dish lined with foil. Reserve the marinade.
Pat the salmon dry slightly for better caramelization.
Bake the salmon for 10-12 minutes, depending on thickness.
Check for doneness by seeing if the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
Toast the breadcrumbs and sesame seeds in a non-stick pan until golden brown.
Stir constantly to prevent burning.
Sprinkle the toasted topping over the salmon 2 minutes before the end of baking.
This step adds a delightful crunch to the dish.
Simmer the reserved marinade in a small saucepan until slightly thickened.
This glaze enhances the flavor of the dish.
Serve the salmon with the glaze drizzled on top and enjoy.
Garnish with fresh herbs for added color and flavor.
