Saikyo Miso-Glazed Salmon

Ingredients

• 4 salmon fillets, about 6 oz each
• 1/4 cup white miso
• 2 tbsp mirin
• 2 tbsp sake
• 1 tbsp sugar
• 1 tsp grated ginger
• 1 tsp vegetable oil
• 2 green onions, thinly sliced

Method

1. Stir the miso, mirin, sake, sugar and ginger into a smooth paste.
2. Coat the salmon all over and refrigerate at least 30 minutes, or overnight for deeper flavor.
3. Heat the broiler with a rack about 6 inches from the heat and line a sheet pan with foil brushed with the oil.
4. Wipe most of the marinade off the fish so it will not burn and set the fillets skin side down on the pan.
5. Broil 8 to 10 minutes, until the tops are browned in spots and the center reaches 145°F.
6. Scatter green onions over and serve.
