Ingredients

  • 2 salmon fillets (6oz each)
  • 2 tbsp white miso paste
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 tbsp mirin
  • 1 tsp maple syrup
  • 2 tbsp fried shallots
  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
  • 1 sheet nori (finely shredded)
  • 1 tsp grated ginger
  • 1 tbsp sliced scallions

Instructions

1
Begin by patting the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel to ensure a perfect sear.
2
In a small stainless steel saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter until it begins to foam and turn golden brown with a nutty aroma.
3
Immediately whisk in the white miso, mirin, maple syrup, and ginger until smooth.
4
Place a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil; sear the salmon skin-side down for 4 minutes until crispy.
5
Flip the fillets and pour the miso-brown butter glaze over the top.
6
Reduce the heat and baste the fish for an additional 2-3 minutes until the glaze thickens into a glossy, caramelized coating.
7
Remove from heat and plate immediately.
8
Top with a generous sprinkle of crispy shallots, toasted sesame seeds, shredded nori, and fresh scallions for a satisfying textural finish.
