Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, mix together the miso paste, soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger until well combined.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Salmon

    Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  4. 4

    Bake the Salmon

    Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Remove the salmon from the marinade and place it on the baking sheet. Reserve the marinade for basting. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, basting with the reserved marinade halfway through, until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

  5. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove the salmon from the oven, garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds, and serve warm.
