Ingredients for Miso Glazed Salmon

This Miso Glazed Salmon recipe is a so delicious! The miso marinade creates a buttery, sweet texture to the salmon that is absolutely incredible. Here is what you’ll need for the recipe:

• 1 lb salmon Cut to 4 oz fillets
• ¼ cup white miso paste
• 2 tbsp mirin
• 1 tbsp sake
• 2 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 tbsp sugar
• 2 tbsp avocado oil

What type of Miso Paste should I use?

Understand the Types: There are different types of miso paste, the most common being white (shiro), red (aka), and brown (genmai). White miso is milder and sweeter, red miso is stronger and saltier, while brown miso falls in between. I am opting for the white miso paste for this recipe, which will give the salmon a mild and sweet taste.

Tips for Miso Glazed Salmon:

1. Salmon Fillets: Use fresh, high-quality salmon fillets. Skin-on or skinless work well for this dish.
2. Miso Paste: Choose the type of miso paste that suits your preference, whether it’s white miso for a milder flavor or red miso for a stronger, saltier taste.
3. Sweetener: You’ll need a sweetener like honey, maple syrup, or brown sugar to balance the salty umami of the miso.
4. Soy Sauce: Use low-sodium soy sauce to control the saltiness of the glaze.
