Sweet Miso Salmon
Today's recipe comes to us from Monica Puri Bangia's great food blog, “Sharing Plate—Your Cooking Coach”.
Miso is a fermented soy paste commonly used in Japanese cooking. It ranges from mild, light, white miso to heartier, stronger-flavored brown and red miso.
White miso adds wonderful flavor and a bit of body to myriad dishes, especially soups, stews, and stir-fries.
Mirin is a sweet rice wine condiment used in many Japanese dishes. Whil some mirin contains 20 percent alcohol, most brands sold in natural food and Asian stores have only one percent alcohol.
