Miso Glazed Salmon With Sushi Rice Recipes

MISO-CARAMEL GLAZED SALMON WITH SUSHI RICE

Steps:

• SEASONED RICE
• Rinse rice several times with cold water in a colander until water runs clear. Drain well. Transfer to a small saucepan. Add a pinch of salt and 1¼ cups cold water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Stir rice once, cover, and reduce heat to low. Cook until water is evaporated and rice is tender, 18-20 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit, covered, 10 minutes.
• Whisk vinegar, sugar, and remaining 1 tsp. salt in a small bowl until sugar dissolves. Stir into rice and let sit (covered so it stays warm) until ready to use.
• SALMON AND ASSEMBLY
• Whisk maple syrup, miso, tamari, vinegar, and ¼ tsp. red pepper flakes in a small bowl to combine.
• Heat oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium. Season salmon with salt and place in skillet skin side down. Cook, shaking pan occasionally to redistribute oil in skillet, until skin is very crisp and deep golden brown, 7-9 minutes. Turn salmon and continue to cook just until very lightly browned on the flesh side (by this point it should be nearly cooked through), about 2 minutes longer. Using a spatula to hold fish from tumbling out of skillet (or just transfer salmon to a plate while you do this), pour off fat from skillet. (Return fish to skillet if needed before proceeding.) Reduce heat to low and add glaze; cook, stirring occasionally, until it begins to thicken, about 1 minute. Baste salmon with glaze and cook, basting occasionally, until glaze evenly coats fish, about 1 minute longer.
• Serve salmon on top of rice. Drizzle with any leftover glaze. Top with scallions, sesame seeds, and red pepper flakes. Serve with lime wedges alongside for squeezing over.

MISO-GLAZED SALMON WITH SUSHI RICE

Steps:

• Bring rice, a pinch of salt and 2½ cups cold water to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir once, cover, and reduce heat to low. Cook until water evaporates and rice is tender, 18-20 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit, covered, 10 minutes.
• Whisk sugar, ¼ cup vinegar, and 2 tsp. Diamond Crystal or 1¼ tsp. Morton kosher salt in a small bowl until sugar dissolves. Stir into rice; re-cover. Let sit until ready to use.
• Whisk maple syrup, miso, tamari, ½ tsp. red pepper flakes, and remaining ¼ cup vinegar in a small bowl. Set glaze aside.
• Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium. Season salmon with salt; cook, skin side down, shaking pan occasionally, until skin is very crisp and deep golden brown, 7-9 minutes. Turn over and cook just until flesh is very lightly browned ( it should be nearly cooked through), about 2 minutes. Using a spatula to hold back fish, pour off fat from skillet.
• Reduce heat to low and add reserved glaze to skillet; cook, stirring occasionally, until it begins to thicken, about 1 minute. Baste salmon with glaze and cook, basting occasionally, until glaze evenly coats fish, about 1 minute.
• Divide rice among plates and top with salmon. Drizzle with any leftover glaze over; sprinkle with scallions, sesame seeds, and red pepper flakes. Serve with lime wedges if desired.

ROASTED SALMON WITH MISO RICE AND GINGER-SCALLION VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. In a medium saucepan, whisk miso with 2 1/4 cups water until dissolved. Stir in rice and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to low and cook until all of the liquid is absorbed and rice is tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand for 5 minutes. Fluff rice with a fork (it will be a little sticky).
• On a rimmed baking sheet, rub salmon all over with olive oil, season with salt and pepper and arrange skin-side up. Roast until fish is just opaque and cooked to medium, 8 to 10 minutes.
• In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, scallions, vinegar and ginger, and season with salt and pepper.
• Divide miso rice and cabbage among bowls. Top with salmon, ginger-scallion vinaigrette and sesame oil.

MISO-GLAZED SALMON

Steps:

• Whisk together the sake, miso paste, mirin, soy sauce, and brown sugar in a baking dish. Add the salmon, and allow to rest for 5 minutes before flipping the fillets over in the marinade to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours.
• Bring salmon to room temperature, about 15 minutes, then remove salmon from the marinade, and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Arrange salmon in the skillet, and cook until the fish flakes easily with a fork, about 4 minutes on each side. Transfer the fish to a plate and garnish with basil.
