Asian Salmon

​

• . - 1lb salmon filet - skin on

The glaze: You can actually use these ingredients in any proportion you like

• 1 . tbsp Dijon mustard

• 1 . tbsp low sodium tamari or soy sauce

• 1 heaping tsp grated ginger (or to taste)

• 1 garlic clove crushed

• 1 . loosely packed tbsp grated orange rind

• 1 . tbsp agave

​

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Combine glaze ingredients. Cover broiler pan or other dish that can stand up

to broiler with aluminum foil. The skin sticks to the foil so it never actually

touches the fish. Coat the filet thickly with the glaze.

​

Bake for about 5-7 minutes. Then broil until the glaze begins to blacken.

I am serving with avaocado sushi in this menu but the salmon also goes well

with garlic mashed potatoes.

Tools:

​

SushiRice

Place strainer in bowl then fill with water to rinse rice. Swirl the rice in water.

Repeat until water is clear or almost clear. Alternatively you can rinse rice

under kitchen sink sprayer. If using brown rice it will take more rinsing.

Place rice and 1 cup of water into a medium saucepan and place over high

heat. Bring to boil uncovered. Immediately reduce heat to lowest setting and

cover. Cook for about 10-15 minutes or until water is absorbed. Remove from

heat and let stand covered for another 10 minutes.

Combine the rice vinegar, sugar and salt in a small bowl and heat in the

microwave on high for 30-45 seconds – until sugar is dissolved. Add to rice

taking care to thoroughly fold it through. Allow rice to cool before handling to

make sushi.

​

Avodado Rolls

​

Cut avocado in half. Remove pit. Slice avocado halves in thin slices.

Lay sushi mat flat, one end toward you. Lay a sheet of nori on the mat so the

edge lines up with the end of the sushi mat closest to you. Wet fingers in

water, take rice and press it over about half of the nori, again the half closest

to you. Try to get it to the edges. Lay about three avocado slices across the

center of the rice. Lifting the edge of the mat nearest you, roll tightly until

that end reaches the nori laying flat. Squeeze the mat packing the roll

together. Lift that end of mat slightly so it is even with the top of the roll and

continue pulling and rolling until all the nori is wrapped around the rice and

avocado. Dip finger in water and wet the edge of the nori (kind of like sealing

an envelope) and seal the roll. Cut roll into 4-6 pieces. Dip some or all of the

exposed ends into toasted sesame seeds.

Repeat.

​

To Serve

Divide salmon in half. Wedge spatula between flesh and skin and remove

salmon from pan. The skin will stay stuck to the aluminum foil. Place salmon

on plate with sushi rolls. Serve with additional tamari or soy sauce, pickled

ginger and wasabi. Garnish with cucumbers and radish sprouts.
