MISO-GLAZED CEDAR PLANK SALMON
Using a cedar plank to grill salmon is an effortless way to add enormous flavor to your dish. The fish takes on a lovely smokiness, stays moist and the skin doesn't stick to the grates. This one is marinated in an umami-packed miso marinade that brings tons of flavor with very little effort.

Steps:
- Soak a cedar grill plank in water for at least 1 hour and up to 4 hours.
- Bring the mirin and sake to a boil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat, about 2 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium-low and whisk in the miso and sugar. Cook, stirring occasionally, until there are no lumps and the sugar is dissolved, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat, let cool to room temperature and stir in the soy sauce and ginger. Pour the mixture over the salmon in a shallow bowl and let marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- Prepare a grill for medium heat.
- Place the soaked cedar plank in the center of the grill grate. Close the lid and let the plank heat until you hear it start to crack, about 15 minutes. Remove the salmon filets from the marinade, letting any excess drip off, and put them skin-side down on the plank. Close the lid and cook until the salmon is opaque throughout and large flakes break off when flecked with a fork, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the plank from the grill and serve the salmon from the plank (the fish will slide right off with a metal spatula, leaving the skin behind). Discard the plank.
GRILLED CEDAR-PLANKED SALMON
Planking is a rather new experience for us. I prepare the food and DH does the rest. This recipe is adapted from kraftfoods.com and is so simple to make. The original recipe called for parsley which I didn't have. I used fresh garden basil and loved it. Serve with rice, fresh bread and a salad for a lovely meal that is sure to impress. Please note: The cooking or prep time does not include the time needed to soak the cedar plank.

Tips:
- Choose the right salmon. Look for a wild-caught salmon fillet that is at least 1 inch thick. This will ensure that the salmon cooks evenly and doesn't dry out.
- Soak the cedar plank. Soaking the cedar plank in water for at least 30 minutes will help to prevent it from burning. This will also help to infuse the salmon with a subtle smoky flavor.
- Season the salmon. Before grilling, season the salmon with salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices. This will help to enhance the flavor of the fish.
- Grill the salmon over medium heat. This will help to prevent the salmon from overcooking. Cook the salmon for about 10 minutes per side, or until it is cooked through.
- Serve the salmon immediately. Cedar plank salmon is best served hot off the grill. Serve it with grilled cherry tomatoes, lemon wedges, and your favorite dipping sauce.
Conclusion:
Cedar plank salmon is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer cookout. The salmon is cooked on a cedar plank, which infuses it with a subtle smoky flavor. The grilled cherry tomatoes add a pop of sweetness and color to the dish. Serve the cedar plank salmon with lemon wedges and your favorite dipping sauce for a complete meal.
