Miso Glazed Salmon
Yes, you can… make this super easy Miso Glazed Salmon! Buy a beautiful piece of salmon (I prefer Atlantic salmon because of its fatty texture) from your fishmonger or the fish market at your local grocery store to make this recipe. Whole Foods always has the best Atlantic salmon, which is actually Norwegian salmon. The fish will literally melt in your mouth, and this fantastic marinade is perfect for this fish. Miso paste (fermented soy bean paste) whisked with mirin, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and ginger is sweet and salty and full of deliciousness in every bite! Broiling the fish browns it perfectly, but you can grill it as well. Make a little extra of the marinade to drizzle on top when serving! We like to pair this dish with our Baby Bok Choy with Ginger & Garlic and a side of sticky white rice. Soooo good!
Pop this Miso Glazed Salmon in the oven and broil for 10 minutes for a perfectly cooked piece of fish, every time!
The marinade for this recipe is divine! White miso paste is whisked together with mirin, rice vinegar, fresh ginger and herbs. It’s that simple!
Marinate the salmon in a plastic sealable bag for 30 minutes in the fridge. It soaks up all of the delicious flavors of the miso marinade!
Serve this beautiful dish with our Baby Bok Choy with Ginger & Garlic and a side of sticky white rice.

Easy Leftover Pork Soup
Watch the recipe video on the Asian Caucasian YouTube Channel
One thing is certain, when you make this easy pork soup you will not be slaving in the kitchen all day! I used the leftover pork from my Chinese Five Spice Pork Tenderloin recipe to flavor the dish and provide the protein. Just make the broth, add in your veggies (shiitake and oyster mushrooms, garlic, carrots, and onions) and the flavorings. Layer it with yummy soba noodles and top it off with the pork and a soft-boiled egg. It’s even better tasting the next day! So, so good! Really healthy Asian noodle soup, no lie!
