Ingredients

  • 2 fresh salmon fillets (6oz each)
  • 2 tbsp white miso paste
  • 1 tbsp organic honey
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp mirin
  • 1 tbsp glutinous rice flour
  • 1/4 tsp ginger powder
  • 1 tbsp chopped scallions
  • 1 tsp toasted black sesame seeds

Instructions

1
Begin by whisking the white miso, honey, mirin, sesame oil, and ginger powder in a small bowl until a smooth, thick glaze forms.
2
Place the salmon fillets on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
3
Lightly dust the top of each fillet with a fine layer of glutinous rice flour to create a unique, slightly chewy crust that mimics the texture of mochi.
4
Brush the miso-honey mixture generously over the dusted salmon.
5
Preheat your broiler to high and place the salmon 6 inches from the heat source.
6
Broil for 6-8 minutes until the edges are caramelized and slightly charred while the center remains buttery and succulent.
7
Garnish with fresh scallions and black sesame seeds immediately before serving to provide a vibrant contrast in color and texture.
