Ingredients

  • 2 Atlantic salmon fillets (6oz each)
  • 2 tbsp white miso paste
  • 1 tbsp organic honey
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp mirin
  • 2 tbsp glutinous rice flour
  • 1 tbsp black sesame seeds
  • 1 scallion (thinly sliced)
  • 1 tsp grated fresh ginger

Instructions

1
Begin by patting the salmon fillets thoroughly dry to ensure a crisp sear.
2
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the white miso, honey, mirin, and fresh ginger until a smooth, velvety glaze forms.
3
Lightly dust the top of each salmon fillet with a thin layer of glutinous rice flour; this creates a delicate, mochi-like crust that traps moisture and absorbs the sauce perfectly.
4
Heat a non-stick pan over medium-high heat with the sesame oil.
5
Place the salmon flour-side down and sear for three minutes until a golden-brown, crispy crust develops.
6
Carefully flip the fillets and pour the miso-honey mixture into the pan.
7
Reduce heat to low, allowing the glaze to bubble and thicken, coating the salmon in a luscious, glossy finish for another two minutes.
8
Plate immediately, garnished with a generous sprinkle of black sesame seeds and fresh scallions for a sharp, aromatic contrast.
