Ingredients

• Sockeye Salmon Fillet

• Olive Oil

• Salt and Pepper

• White Rice

• Miso paste

• Sesame oil

• Kewpie Mayo

• Seasonal Vegetables

• Soya Sauce

• Vinegar

• Sugar

• Sesame Seeds

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 425°F and cook a cup of white rice in a rice cooker or pot. Prepare your vegetables by pickling them in soy sauce, vinegar, and a pinch of sugar—the longer they sit in the fridge, the better. Season the salmon fillet with olive oil, salt, and pepper, then place it on a baking sheet or wrap it in foil before baking for 12–15 minutes. While the salmon cooks, make the glaze by mixing a few tablespoons of Kewpie mayo with a teaspoon of sesame oil, a small amount of miso paste, and a few teaspoons of soy sauce. Once the salmon reaches an internal temperature of 135–145°F, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Serve the salmon over a bed of white rice with your pickled vegetables, drizzle with the miso-sesame glaze, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and Enjoy!
