Miso Glazed Bacon Recipes

MISO-GLAZED BACON AND ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Trim and peel the root end of the asparagus to remove the tough outer skin. Slice asparagus in half keeping the tips and bases separate. Lay half bacon strips out on your cutting board. Lay a base piece and a tip piece on each slice of bacon, then roll it up and secure with a bamboo toothpick through the middle at a 90 degree angle.
• Preheat grill to medium heat.
• In a small mixing bowl combine miso, mirin, lemon juice, lemon zest and sugar. Stir with a whisk and use a pastry brush to baste the skewers as they cook on the grill - about 2 to 3 minutes per side on high.

MISO GLAZED BACON

Steps:

• In saucepot, cook miso, syrup, wine vinegar and mirin together.
• Whisk together and reduce on low heat until thick and glossy.
• Meanwhile, lay bacon on silpat or parchment paper overlapping and facing same direction.
• Lay another parchment on top and place smaller sheet pan on top (weigh down with saute pans). Bake at 375 degrees for about 11 minutes.
• When bacon is crispy, take out without removing weights.
• Remove bacon from pan and lay on new sheet pan with parchment.
• Heavily glaze the bacon with the miso syrup and bake 2 to 3 minutes. Let cool and cut into even long strips.

MISO MAPLE-GLAZED SALMON

Steps:

• Place oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
• Whisk together miso paste, seasoned rice vinegar, maple syrup, and hot chili sauce in a bowl.
• Brush an oven-ready skillet with vegetable oil.
• Place salmon fillets skin sides down in the cold skillet. Place over medium heat and cook until the skin starts to sizzle, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove pan from heat.
• Brush each salmon fillet with miso glaze. Place skillet under the preheated broiler and cook until the salmon is just cooked through and the top is browned, about 8 minutes.
• Remove each fillet from the pan, separating flesh from the skin; leave the skin in the pan.
