Ingredients
- Salmon Fillets (4 pieces, 6 oz each): Opt for wild-caught for vibrant color and rich flavor, or farmed for a milder, buttery texture.
- White Miso Paste (3 tablespoons): Brings the signature umami depth. Substitute with red miso for a bolder taste, or chickpea miso for a soy-free option.
- Sake (2 tablespoons): Adds subtle sweetness. Dry sherry or white wine work as alternatives.
- Mirin (2 tablespoons): A touch of authentic Japanese sweetness—substitute with honey mixed with a splash of rice vinegar for a similar profile.
- Soy Sauce (1 tablespoon): For savory depth; for gluten-free needs, choose tamari or coconut aminos.
- Fresh Ginger (1 teaspoon, finely grated): Provides gentle heat and aromatic complexity.
- Green Onions (2, sliced): Adds brightness as a garnish.
- Toasted Sesame Seeds (1 tablespoon): For a delicate crunch and nutty aroma.
