Chef’s Pro Tips

  • For extra flavor, marinate the salmon in the miso mixture for 30 minutes before baking.
  • Toasted sesame seeds add a nutty flavor and crunch to the dish—toast them in a dry pan until fragrant.
  • Squeeze fresh lime juice over the salmon just before serving to brighten up the flavors.
