Maple Miso Dijon Salmon

My family can’t get enough of salmon. We are lucky we live in Vancouver where salmon is abundant and available all year round. I cook salmon almost once a week and always try to make it a different way. Having said that, we still have our favorite salmon dishes and one of them is Maple Mustard Baked Salmon. This maple miso dijon salmon recipe is similar, but Kevin of Closet Cooking gave this popular dish an Asian twist, adding miso and rice vinegar to the ingredients. The salmon turned out perfectly cooked after 17 minutes and it was tender, succulent and very tasty. To make the salmon top caramelized and dark in color, I boiled the reserved marinade and brushed the top of salmon at the last couple minutes of baking. This baked salmon marinated in maple syrup, miso paste and Dijon and grainy mustard looks appetizing and is delicious. I will definitely be making this healthy baked salmon dish again in the future. Enjoy!
