Misoyaki Glazed Salmon Recipes

SALMON MISOYAKI

Steps:

• Pat the salmon dry with paper towels, especially the skin side. To make attractive slices of salmon, tilt the knife to about a 45-degree angle to the cutting board while making the cut. This increases the surface area and makes prettier portions. Cut into 4 portions. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
• To prepare the glaze, measure the sake and mirin into a small, heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat and bring to a boil. Boil the mixture to evaporate the alcohol and reduce the volume until about 1/4 cup remains, approximately 5 to 7 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium low and stir in the sugar and miso. Cook until it turns a pale caramel color, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in the grated ginger and keep the glaze warm while the salmon is grilled.
• Preheat an indoor grill pan to medium high. (Alternatively, cook outdoors over a moderate charcoal fire.) Spray the salmon fillets on both sides with cooking spray. Grill for about 4 minutes on each side or until each piece has turned opaque with appetizing brown bits. (Or cook to your preferred doneness.)
• Remove the salmon from the grill to a platter and brush with the warm glaze. Garnish with sliced scallions and sesame seeds. Serve immediately.

GRILLED MISO SALMON

Steps:

• Mix Miso, Mirin, Sake, sugar, and soy sauce in a bowl. Marinade salmon fillets in Miso mixture for at least 3 hours, or overnight.
• Preheat oven at 425F. Wipe marinade liquid well from salmon fillets and place them on oiled aluminum foil spread over a sheet pan.
• Bake for 10-12 minutes, until cooked through.

MISOYAKI SALMON

Steps:

• Mix the miso, sake, mirin, soy and sugar in a bowl.
• Place the salmon, and miso sauce in a ziplock bag and marinate in the fridge for a couple of hours or overnight.
• Bake the salmon in a preheated 450F/230C oven for a few minutes (the exact time will depend on how thick the salmon is).
• Broil the salmon until golden brown on top, about 1-3 minutes.

MISOYAKI-GLAZED SALMON

Steps:

• To prepare the glaze, place the sake, soy sauce, miso paste and sugar in the top of a double boiler and cook for about 20 minutes, stirring often until the sugar is well dissolved and the mixture is fragrant.
• Set aside to cool.
• Place the salmon fillets in a glass baking dish and generously coat each fillet with the cooled miso glaze.
• Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 24 hours.
• Remove the salmon fillets from the miso glaze, quickly rinse under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.
• Pour the canola oil and sesame oil into a large saute pan or skillet and set over medium high heat.
• Carefully add the salmon fillets to the pan and cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until the first side has browned nicely.
• turn the salmon over, turn down the heat to medium and cook for 3 to 4 minutes longer, or until the salmon flakes easily when pierced with a fork.
• Remove the fillets from the pan, pat with paper towels to remove any excess oil, and transfer to a warm serving plate.
• Using the same paper towls, gently pat the saute pan to remove the excessoil and any burnt bits, but leaving the residual drippings.
• Return the pan to the heat, add 1/4 to 1/2 cup water and deglaze the pan to create a pan juice.
• Top the salmon fillets with the pan juice.
• Garnish with the sliced scallions.

MISO GLAZED SALMON

• To make the glaze: In a large bowl combine the miso paste, soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil, and garlic.

MISOYAKI

Steps:

• Whisk miso, 1 cup sugar, sake, and mirin together in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until marinade has reduced, about 45 minutes. Transfer marinade to a shallow dish and cool completely, 30 minutes to 1 hour. Place butterfish in the marinade and refrigerate, 8 hours to overnight.
• Combine shallot, bay leaf, peppercorns, vinegar, and wine in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until only about 1 tablespoon liquid remain, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour cream into mixture and simmer until cream mixture has reduced by half, 2 to 3 minutes. Increase heat to medium-high and rapidly whisk butter pieces, 1 at a time, until beurre blanc is smooth and thickened. Strain beurre blanc through a mesh strainer to remove spices.
• Stir lemon juice into beurre blanc until lemon sauce is evenly mixed; fold in parsley.
• Combine soy sauce and 1 cup sugar in a saucepan over low heat; cook and stir until sugar is dissolved and sweet soy sauce has reduced to 1 cup, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Heat a skillet over medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Remove butterfish from marinade, discarding unused marinade. Cook butterfish in the hot skillet until fish flakes easily with a fork, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer butterfish to a warmed plate and drizzle lemon sauce and sweet soy sauce around fish.
