Best 4 Miso Salmon With Sake Butter Recipes

MISO SALMON WITH SAKE BUTTER

Steps:

• Bring water and rice to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until most of the water has been absorbed, about 20 minutes. Place snow peas on top of the rice and steam, covered, until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Transfer snow peas to a bowl to stop cooking.
• Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
• Line a baking dish with aluminum foil and coat with cooking spray. Arrange salmon fillets in the dish.
• Whisk brown sugar, soy sauce, water, and miso together in a small bowl. Spoon over salmon.
• Broil salmon in the preheated oven, basting it frequently with the topping mixture, until it is golden brown and flakes easily with a fork, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Add ginger and shallots; cook and stir until shallots are translucent, 2 to 3 minutes. Add 1/2 cup sake; bring to a boil and cook until reduced by 2/3, about 3 minutes. Add heavy cream; bring to a boil and cook until sauce is reduced by half, about 2 minutes.
• Whisk in cubes of butter one at a time until incorporated and sauce is thick and creamy. Remove from heat. Whisk in remaining 1 tablespoon sake and lime juice. Season with salt.
• Spoon some sake sauce onto 4 serving plates. Place rice in the middle of each and top with a piece of salmon. Arrange snow peas around each plate. Garnish with chives.

SAKE AND MISO MARINATED SALMON WITH COCONUT RICE AND BROCCOLINI

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together the miso, brown sugar, sake and mirin. Place the salmon, skin-side down, in a large resealable bag. Pour in the marinade and close the bag. Lightly massage to coat the salmon with the marinade. Place the bag flat on a sheet tray. Marinate for 12 to 24 hours in the refrigerator.
• Preheat the broiler (on low if you have a low and high setting).
• Line an 18-by-13-inch sheet pan with foil and fit with an 8 1/2-by-12-inch wire rack on one side. Drizzle or brush the rack and aluminum foil with some olive oil.
• Remove the salmon from the marinade and sprinkle with salt. Place the salmon fillets side-by-side, skin-side down, on top of the rack. Spread the broccolini in a single layer on the other half of the sheet pan and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle the broccolini with the crushed red pepper flakes and salt.
• Broil on the top rack until the salmon reaches 135 degrees F, 5 to 7 minutes.
• If desired, remove the salmon skin from the fillets before serving. Serve the salmon and broccolini with a side of Coconut Rice.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Melt the coconut oil in a medium pot over medium heat. Add the rinsed rice to the pot and stir. (This creates a nice fat barrier to ensure well-separated grains of rice.) Add the coconut milk, salt and 2 cups water to the pot. Give it a good stir and cover with a lid. Bring to a boil, then immediately lower to a gentle simmer. Simmer for 10 minutes, then take off the heat with the lid still on and let the rice rest for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place the shredded coconut on a parchment-lined sheet pan. Bake until golden brown and crispy, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool.
• Fluff the rice with a fork and serve with the lime wedges and a nice sprinkle of toasted coconut.

MISO-MARINATED SALMON

Steps:

• Stir together the miso, mirin, sugar and sake, if using. Place the salmon fillets on a plate or in a medium food bag and cover with the miso marinade. Leave in the fridge for at least 30 mins or, better still, overnight.
• Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Lightly oil a baking tray. Use kitchen paper to wipe off the marinade (don't be tempted to wash it off as you will lose some of the flavour). Place the fillets on the baking tray, skin side down. Cook in the oven for 15 mins until the fish flakes easily and is cooked through.
• Meanwhile, make the cucumber salad. Using a vegetable peeler, shave the cucumber into long, thin ribbons. Whisk together the rice wine vinegar, oil and sugar. Toss the cucumber ribbons in the dressing, then curl them up on two plates. Serve with the salmon and some plain white rice sprinkled with toasted sesame seeds.

SAKE-STEAMED SALMON WITH SAKE BUTTER

Steps:

• Bruise lemongrass with back of a knife. Place it, with 2 cups of water, sake, ginger, star anise and orange peel in bottom of a steamer.
• Butter steamer tray and lay salmon in it. Set tray in steamer.
• Bring lemongrass mixture to a boil. Cover and steam salmon 4 to 5 minutes, until just cooked through. Serve with sake butter and lime wedges.
• Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add ginger and shallot. Cover and sweat for 2 to 3 minutes, until golden. Add 1/2 cup sake and bring to a boil. Boil until liquid is reduced to 3 tablespoons, about 2 minutes. Whisk in butter bits one by one until creamy. Immediately remove from heat. Whisk in remaining sake, lime juice and salt to taste. Keep warm.
