About this saved recipe
Ingredients
- 10 oz salmon
- 0.67 cup white miso paste
- 0.33 cup xylitol
- 0.33 cup Japanese sake
- 0.33 cup mirin
- 4 roasted nori sheets
Plating
- 1 fish skin
- 0.04 oz wasabi
- 0.01 oz shiso leaf
- 1 edible flower
Instructions
- 1In a medium bowl, combine the white miso paste, xylitol, Japanese sake, and mirin; whisk until the mixture is smooth and the sweetener is fully dissolved, forming a glossy glaze.
- 2Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels, then brush the miso glaze generously over all sides of each fillet, allowing the glaze to coat the fish evenly.
- 3Preheat the oven to 400°F (392°F). Place the glazed salmon on a parchment‑lined baking sheet, spacing the fillets apart to ensure even cooking.
- 4Bake the salmon for 12–15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (145°F) and the glaze has caramelized, turning a deep amber color.
- 5While the salmon bakes, arrange the roasted nori sheets on a serving platter around the anticipated placement of the fish; keep them crisp for added texture.
- 6When the salmon is done, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 2 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
- 7Transfer each salmon fillet onto the prepared platter, positioning them atop or beside the nori sheets as desired.
- 8Garnish each piece with a whole piece of fish skin, a pinch of fresh wasabi, a shiso leaf, and an edible flower for visual appeal and subtle flavor accents.
- 9Serve immediately, optionally with steamed rice or a light salad, and enjoy the harmonious blend of umami, sweet, and sea‑briny notes.
