Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons white miso paste
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce or tamari
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 4 salmon fillets (6 oz / 170 g each), skin-on
  • 2 cups cooked jasmine or brown rice (about 370 g)
  • 1 cup shelled edamame (150 g)
  • 1 medium avocado, sliced
  • 1 small cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 1 medium carrot, shredded
  • 2 stalks green onions, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • Optional: pickled ginger or kimchi
  • Optional: fresh cilantro or parsley

Instructions

  1. Rinse 1 cup (185 g) jasmine or brown rice under cold water until water runs clear. Cook according to package instructions (about 15 minutes for jasmine or 40 minutes for brown rice). Keep warm.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 tbsp white miso paste, 1 tbsp honey, 1 tsp rice vinegar, 1 tsp grated fresh ginger, 1 minced garlic clove, 1 tbsp soy sauce or tamari, and 1 tsp sesame oil until smooth and glossy.
  3. Preheat the broiler to high and position the rack about 6 inches (15 cm) from the heat source.
  4. Pat dry four 6 oz (170 g) salmon fillets with paper towels. Place skin-side down on a foil-lined baking sheet. Brush each fillet generously with the miso glaze, reserving some for serving.
  5. Broil the salmon for 6-8 minutes, watching closely until the glaze bubbles and caramelizes and salmon flakes easily with a fork. Avoid overcooking.
  6. While salmon cooks, blanch edamame in boiling water for 3 minutes, then drain and cool. Slice cucumber thinly, shred carrot, chop green onions, and slice avocado just before serving.
  7. Divide cooked rice evenly among four bowls. Arrange edamame, cucumber, carrot, avocado slices, and green onions around the salmon. Drizzle with leftover miso glaze and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
  8. Add pickled ginger or kimchi on the side and garnish with fresh cilantro or parsley if desired.

Notes

Pat salmon dry before glazing for better glaze adherence and crispier skin. Watch the broiler closely to avoid burning the glaze. Let salmon rest a couple of minutes before serving to lock in juices. The glaze can be made up to 3 days ahead and stored in the fridge. For crispier skin, sear salmon skin-side down in a hot nonstick pan for 3-4 minutes before broiling.
