Marinade

Salmon

Method

Marinade Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, mirin, sake, brown sugar, minced garlic, and grated ginger until the sugar is dissolved.

Salmon Preparation

  1. 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 better flavor.

  2. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F to 400°F).

  3. 4

    Grill the Salmon

    Remove the salmon from the marinade, allowing excess marinade to drip off. Brush the grill grates with sesame oil to prevent sticking. Place the salmon on the grill skin-side down and cook for about 4-5 minutes.

  4. 5

    Add Uni

    Carefully flip the salmon and immediately top each fillet with uni. Close the grill lid and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

  5. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove the salmon from the grill and sprinkle with chopped scallions, toasted sesame seeds, and black pepper. Serve immediately.
