Ingredients
- 1/4 cup white miso (fermented soybean paste)
- 1/4 cup mirin
- 2 tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar
- 2 to 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons minced green onions
- 1 1/2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
- 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
- 4 salmon fillets, 8 ounces each
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- Yuzu juice, for drizzling, optional
Directions
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.

Really tasty and light marinade that still allows the the great flavor of salmon to come through! I didn't use the miso in my marinade and it turned out wonderfully. I marinaded my 1.5 lb coho salmon filet skin-side down in a foil-lined baking dish and then threw the whole thing in the oven---baked it at 400 degrees for 10 minutes, then broiled for 2 min on high to make the top a little crispy. Perfect amount for 3 people. Got rave reviews!

This was quick, easy, and delicious!
Went to Whole Foods/Trader Joes to find all my ingredients. I've never used Mirin before so that was a bit of a struggle to find. Happily, I found the mirin was by the soy sauces in Whole Foods.

Holy crap, this is a delicious marinade. Roasted in oven at 425 for 13 minutes for a self-serve dinner - leftovers at lunch tomorrow will be a treat.
