Ingredients
Scale
- Salmon fillets 1–1.5 lb
- White miso paste 1 tbsp
- Low-sodium soy sauce 1 tsp
- Mirin 1 tsp
- Freshly grated ginger 1 tsp
- Thinly sliced scallions, to garnish
- Sesame seeds, to garnish
- Salt, a pinch
Instructions
- Let salmon sit at room temperature 15 minutes for even cooking.
- Heat oven to 425ºF (220ºC) with rack in middle position. Line a sheet pan with parchment.
- Pat salmon dry and season lightly with a pinch of salt.
- Whisk miso, soy, mirin, and ginger with a splash of water until smooth, brush generously over salmon.
- Bake 8–12 minutes (thick fillets toward 12) until internal temp is 140–145ºF or to desired doneness.

Notes
- For stronger miso flavor, increase miso to 1½–2 tbsp and thin with a bit more water or mirin so it brushes easily.
- Air-fryer option: 390–400ºF for 7–10 minutes depending on thickness.
- Serve with rice, roasted broccoli, or a crisp cucumber-sesame salad.
