Teriyaki Salmon

Glazed salmon with a homemade teriyaki that beats any bottle.

Ingredients

• 4 salmon fillets
• Teriyaki: 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tbsp mirin, 2 tbsp sake, 2 tbsp sugar
• 1 tbsp oil
• Sesame seeds, scallions, rice

Method

1. Sear salmon skin-side up 3 min. Flip.

2. Pour teriyaki sauce into pan. Simmer 3 min, basting salmon as sauce thickens into a glaze.

3. Serve over rice. Spoon remaining glaze over. Garnish with sesame seeds and scallions.

What You're Practicing

• Homemade teriyaki takes 2 minutes and is infinitely better than bottled.
• The sauce reduces into a glaze — keep basting to build layers.
