Delicious Miso Glazed Salmon

Save

Not so fun fact about me. I enjoy salmon but will never eat the ones that are sold outside. They are too “fishy” to my liking. Yeah, I know I’m weird. Anyways, I only eat salmon that I personally cook. I have been lucky when it comes to trying new salmon recipes as they mostly turn out to be fabulous! It’s almost like my brain telling me why would you buy when you can cook such good and flavourful salmon on your own? I hope it doesn’t sound like I’m bragging! Haha!! *nervous laughter*

Although you need only some basic seasonings to cook a good salmon, but I’m always on a look-out for new ways to prepare them like in this case, we are using miso. Miso is earthy. It has an umami flavor to it. Adding butter to the sauce makes it rich, yummy, creamy and Oh-so-good! The mushrooms also adds another dimension to the dish. This dish was perfect on it own and I imagine that it would be equally beautiful on a bed of rice.
