Miso Marinated Salmon Recipe By Tasty

Steps:

• First, make the tama-miso sauce. In a small cup, mix the sake with 2 tablespoons water. In a suribachi or other mortar, grind the miso, sugar, and egg yolk to a smooth paste. Add the rice wine and water mixture little by little, grinding all the time. Season to taste with shoyu. Have at hand a bowl half-filled with cold water and ice cubes. Transfer the sauce to the top of a double-boiler, and cook the sauce over simmering water, stirring constantly and thoroughly so you do not scramble the egg, until the sauce becomes thicker, about 6 to 8 minutes. Set the bowl of sauce in the bowl of cold water and ice cubes to cool. Tama-miso may be stored in the refrigerator, covered, for three days. Heat the sauce through before using it.
• Salt the fish on both sides, and rest it on a steel rack set over the pan, for 1 hour in the refrigerator.
• In a medium bowl, soften the miso by stirring in the sake and mirin. Spread one-third of the miso mixture in the bottom of a large pan in which the fish can fit without overlapping. Lay a tightly woven cotton cloth or two layers of cheesecloth over the miso in the pan. Wipe the salted salmon with a paper towel to remove the salt and the liquid exuded from the fish. Place all the salmon pieces on the cloth in the pan, and cover them with another tightly woven cotton cloth or two layers of cheese cloth. Spread the remaining miso mixture over the cloth, covering the surface completely. Wrap the entire pan with plastic wrap, and refrigerate it for 5 hours.
• In a small saucepan, combine the dry white wine, komezu, and shallot. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat to very low, and cook the mixture until it is reduced to 1 tablespoon syrup.
• In a large pot of boiling water, parboil the spinach, excluding the 4 leaves, 1 to 2 minutes. Cool the spinach in ice water, and drain the spinach well. In a food processor, purée the spinach. In a skillet, heat 1 inch oil over medium heat to 320°F. One at a time, add the 4 reserved spinach leaves to the oil, and cook them until they are bright green and translucent, 10 to 15 seconds. Transfer the spinach to paper towels to drain.
• Lift the top cloth (or cloths) from the salmon, and remove the salmon from the marinade. Discard the marinade, or reserve it to use as a fish marinade one more time within 2 weeks, after heating it through and adding more miso and sake, or for making miso soup. If there is any miso residue on the fish, gently wipe it away with a paper towel. At this point you can refrigerate the fish, in a well-sealed plastic bag, for up to 3 days, or freeze it for a longer period.
• Heat a broiler or grill, and the broiler pan or grill rack. With a pastry brush, lightly grease the pan or rack. Transfer the salmon to the pan or rack, and cook the salmon, turning once, until both sides are light golden. A 1-inch-thick salmon steak needs about 8 minutes' total cooking. Marinated fish burns easily, so you may need to cover the fish with aluminum foil as it cooks.
• In a small saucepan, combine 2 Tbsp tama-miso sauce with the reduced vinegar-wine syrup. Place the saucepan over low heat, and cook until the mixture is heated through. Transfer the mixture to a medium bowl, and add the spinach purée. Little by little, whisk in the olive oil. Serve the salmon with the spinach sauce underneath and garnished with the fried spinach leaves.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine miso, sugar, sake and mirin.
• In a shallow container, combine the marinade and salmon. Marinate at least 30 minutes in the fridge.
• Heat the pan over medium low heat. place a parchment paper in a pan. Place salmon on top of the parchment paper so salmon doesn't burn. Cook 6-7 minutes both side or salmon gets the nice grill mark and color becomes opaque.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk vinegar, honey and 4-1/2 teaspoons miso until smooth. Gradually whisk in 1/3 cup canola oil and sesame oil; set aside. , Spread remaining 4-1/2 teaspoons miso over salmon. Bake at 400° for 12-15 minutes, or until fish just begins to flake easily with a fork., Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat remaining canola oil over medium heat. Add snow peas, pepper and onion; cook and stir until crisp-tender, 8-10 minutes. Add rice. Cook and stir until heated through. Remove from the heat. Stir in spinach until wilted. Serve with salmon; drizzle with reserved vinaigrette and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a small bowl, combine the miso paste, honey, rice vinegar, garlic, ginger, and pepper. Whisk until smooth.
• Place the salmon fillets skin-side down in the center of the prepared baking sheet and brush generously with the miso-honey sauce.
• Lay the asparagus on one side of the salmon and the baby bok choy on the other side. Drizzle the vegetables with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Rub the vegetables until evenly coated.
• Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked to your liking.
• Divide the vegetables and salmon between serving plates, with rice alongside if desired. Garnish the salmon with sesame seeds and serve immediately.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• For the salmon marinade: Whisk together the rice vinegar, honey, miso, soy sauce, sesame oil and sriracha in a non-reactive container large enough to fit the salmon snugly. Add the salmon and turn to coat. Let marinate, turning occasionally, at least 30 minutes at room temperature or up to 4 hours in the refrigerator.
• To cook the salmon: Heat the oil in a medium non-stick or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the salmon from the marinade, letting the excess drip off, and add to the skillet, skin-side down. Reserve the marinade. Cook until the skin is golden brown and crispy, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook until the salmon is just cooked through, about 3 minutes more, depending on thickness. Pour the reserved marinade into the pan and cook 1 to 2 minutes, spooning over the fish to glaze. Remove the salmon on a plate to avoid overcooking. (The salmon can be made up to a day ahead and served warm, room temp or cold from the fridge.)
• To assemble the bowls: Spoon the Farro (recipe follows) into 4 serving bowls. Add a piece of salmon into each bowl and gently break open the salmon into large chunks. Top with a spoonful of Pickled Vegetables (recipe follows). Garnish with a squirt of mayo, a drizzle of sriracha, crushed arare crackers, cilantro, scallions, sesame seeds and a lemon wedge on the side.
• Bring a large saucepan of lightly salted water to boil. Add the farro. Bring to a simmer and cook until the farro is tender but still has a bit of chew, 25 to 35 minutes depending on the brand. Drain well. Return to the saucepan and add the olive oil, sesame oil and salt and toss to combine. Taste and season with more salt, if needed. (Farro can be made up to a day ahead and served at room temperature.)
• Combine the cucumbers, radishes and red onion in a medium bowl. Combine the vinegar, sugar, salt, ginger and garlic in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer and cook just until the salt and sugar dissolve. Add the ice cubes to melt and cool down the pickling liquid. Pour over the vegetables. Refrigerate until chilled, 30 minutes or more. (The quick pickled vegetables can be made up to a day ahead.)

Steps:

• Whisk together the miso, mirin, vinegar, soy sauce, green onions, ginger, and sesame oil in a small bowl. Place the salmon in a baking dish, pour the marinade over, and turn to coat. Cover and marinate for 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
• Heat grill to high. Remove the fish from the marinade and season with salt and pepper. Grill the salmon, skin side down, with the cover closed, until golden brown and a crust has formed, about 3 to 4 minutes. Turn the salmon over and continue grilling for 3 to 4 minutes for medium doneness. Drizzle with a little yuzu juice, if desired, and serve.

Steps:

• Combine the mirin and sake in the smallest saucepan you have and bring to a boil over high heat. Boil 20 seconds, taking care not to boil off much of the liquid, then turn the heat to low and stir in the miso and the sugar. Whisk over medium heat without letting the mixture boil until the sugar has dissolved. Remove from the heat and whisk in the sesame oil. Allow to cool. Transfer to a wide glass or stainless steel bowl or baking dish.
• Pat the fish fillets dry and brush or rub on both sides with the marinade, then place them in the baking dish and turn them over a few times in the marinade remaining in the dish. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate for 2 to 3 hours, or for up to a day.
• Light the broiler or prepare a grill. Line a sheet pan with foil and oil the foil. Tap each fillet against the sides of the bowl or dish so excess marinade will slide off. Place skin side up on the baking sheet if broiling.
• Place the fish skin side down on the grill, or skin side up under the broiler, about 6 inches from the heat. Broil or grill for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, until the surface browns and blackens in spots. If necessary (this will depend on the thickness of the fillets) finish in a 400-degree oven, for about 5 minutes, until the fish is opaque and can be pulled apart easily with a fork.
