Misoyaki Salmon

[heart_this] · Nov 28, 2007 · 11 Comments

Misoyaki Salmon

It had been a while since I had done a misoyaki dish. A misoyaki dish is similar to a teriyaki dish where the meat is marinated in a sweet and salty miso sauce. I had always done misoyaki with pork cutlets but I recently came across a post about misoyaki salmon . Salmon is probably my favorite fish and I hardly need an excuse to try it misoyaki style. I normally marinate the pork for just an hour before cooking it but I decided to try marinating the salmon overnight for even more flavour. It turned out to really good. The salmon was tender, juicy, sweet and salty. The next time I think I would like to try the misoyaki with the black cod that is mentioned in the post. I have never had black cod and it sounds interesting.
You can easily change the saltiness, sweetness, smoothness, and liquidity of the misoyaki sauce by changing the ratio of the ingredients. All of the ingredients should be available in the Asian section of your grocery store or at a local Asian grocery store. You can marinate for just an hour or up to several days. Once the marinading is done the meal cooks in a matter of minutes. You can marinate pretty much any type of meat. I would also imagine that the misoyaki sauce would go well on vegetables.

    I like the ingredients and the salmon looks tempting. I’ll have to hit the Asian market for Mirin and LCBO for some Sake.

    I had salmon this way a while ago in a Japanese restaurant and was wondering what the marinade was. The sweet note was too pronounced for my taste, so I’d like to try it without sugar. Thanks for the recipe.
