Pickled Ginger Baked Salmon Recipes

• Add soy sauce, rice wine, rice vinegar, ginger, and wasabi paste to the garlic-sesame oil mixture; whisk to combine. Add salmon fillets and turn to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 20 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Remove fillets from the marinade, shake off excess, and place on the prepared baking sheet. Discard the remaining marinade.
• Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, 10 to 15 minutes.

GINGER SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a small bowl, blend olive oil, honey, Dijon mustard and ginger
• Brush salmon fillets evenly with the olive oil mixture. Place in a medium baking dish. Bake 15 to 20 minutes in the preheated oven, until the fish flakes easily with a fork.

SESAME GINGER BAKED SALMON IN FOIL

Steps:

• Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 375ºF. Tear three pieces of foil that are slightly larger than the baking sheet, large enough to wrap the salmon in. Place one piece of foil on the baking sheet, followed by the second one going the other way (like a cross) and the last one going the same direction as the first. This will ensure none of the sauce leaks out.
• In a saucepan over medium heat, heat the oil and add the ginger and garlic and allow to sizzle for just 30 seconds, add the rice vinegar and soy sauce and allow the them to reduce for 30 seconds to a minute. Stir in the honey and remove from heat. Add the sesame oil and red pepper flakes.
• Place the salmon filet in the prepared foil, using a brush or spoon, brush the salmon with the sesame ginger sauce. Any remaining sauce can be poured around the salmon. Sprinkle with the toasted sesame seeds. Wrap the foil so all sides are properly closed so the sauce does not leak.
• Bake salmon for 12-14 minutes or until firm (see note). Open the foil, spoon the sauce surrounding the salmon onto the fish, place under the broiler on for the 1-3 minutes, keeping an eye on the salmon so it does not burn. Remove from the oven, if your sauce is a little liquidy, allow the fish to rest for just 5 minutes. This will allow the sauce to thicken a bit. Serve with sliced scallions garnished on top.

Top each with a slice of smoked salmon. Bake for 12 minutes, or until the fish is translucent pink in the center.

LIME & GINGER SALMON

Steps:

• Mix the lime juice, ginger, garlic, soy and vinegar with some black pepper. Pour half over the salmon fillets and leave to marinate for 10 mins.
• Heat the grill to High. Lay the salmon on a non-stick baking tray and grill for 5-6 mins each side or until cooked through. Meanwhile, heat a wok with the remaining marinade and the stock, add the baby corn and broccoli, stir-fry for about 5 mins, then add the pak choi and cook for 2 mins more.
• Serve the salmon on top of the vegetables with any sauce from the pan and sprinkle with the spring onions.

• Brush salmon with glaze, and place on baking sheet or pan.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 15- 20 minutes, or until salmon flakes easily.
• Note: If using a whole fillet (1/2 a salmon), cooking time may take a little longer, if using small, individual serving size fillets, cooking time may be a little shorter.

PICKLED GINGER FOR SUSHI

Steps:

• Peel the ginger and slice it as thin as humanly possible.
• Rub the sliced ginger with the coarse salt until you do not feel the graininess of the salt.
• Place ginger in a mixing bowl and refrigerate for several hours.
• After ginger has sat for several hours, take it out and squeeze out as much liquid as possible.
• Put ginger in a clean jar.
• Put the vinegar, water,food coloring, and sugar in a small sauce pan and bring to a simmer.
• Stir until the sugar is dissolved.
• Pour over ginger and allow to cool slightly.
• Seal the jar and allow to"cure" in the refrigerator for at least 3 days.
• (This allows the flavor to mellow out some... you can use it sooner, but it will have more of a"bite").
