Substitutions

Part 1

Cooking oil — If you don’t mind the saturated fat content, coconut oil can be a good choice.

White rice vinegar — Apple cider vinegar is a safe choice. White wine vinegar is another good alternative.

Substitutions

Part 2

Soy sauce — If you’re looking to replace soy sauce in your miso salmon, the ideal choice would be Worcestershire sauce. A fermented combination of lots of vinegar, garlic, onion, and many other spices.

Variations

Serving — This recipe is a copycat, which means you can keep the best parts while omitting the others. Broccoli is a good option, try replacing the snow peas with delicious mashed potatoes, too.

Equipment

Measuring spoons  and cups.

Medium-sized mixing bowl.

Storage and reheating

* Store any leftover miso salmon in an airtight container, for up to two days.

* You can reheat it using a microwave or in a 350-degree oven.

Tips

Part 1

The glaze — If you find your glaze a bit too thick, you can always add a glass of water to fix the consistency.

Miso paste — If you cannot find miso paste in the grocery store, seek it out in your local Asian market.

Tips

Part 2

Use a meat thermometer — We suggest using a meat thermometer to keep an eye on the internal temperature of your salmon, which should be around 145 degrees.
