Ingredients

  • 2 salmon fillets (6oz each)
  • 2 tbsp white miso paste
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 2 tbsp furikake seasoning
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • 1 scallion (thinly sliced)
  • 1/2 tsp freshly grated ginger

Instructions

1
Begin by patting the salmon fillets bone-dry with a paper towel to ensure maximum crispness.
2
In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter until it begins to foam and turn a nutty golden brown.
3
Immediately whisk in the white miso, maple syrup, rice vinegar, and grated ginger until smooth.
4
Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat with a dash of sesame oil.
5
Place the salmon skin-side down, pressing gently, and sear for 4-5 minutes until the skin is shatteringly crisp.
6
Flip carefully, brush generously with the miso-brown butter glaze, and cook for another 2 minutes.
7
Remove from the pan, spoon the remaining warm glaze over the fillets, and finish with a heavy, aromatic dusting of furikake and fresh scallions.
