HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

01

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

02

In a small bowl, whisk together the white miso paste, mirin, soy sauce, brown sugar, and sesame oil until smooth. This is your miso glaze.

03

Place the salmon fillets on one side of the prepared baking sheet. Brush about half of the miso glaze evenly over the top of the salmon fillets.

04

On the other side of the baking sheet, toss the trimmed asparagus with olive oil and salt. Spread them in a single layer.

05

Roast for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, and the asparagus is tender-crisp. For extra caramelization, you can broil for the last 1-2 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.

06

Serve immediately with any remaining miso glaze on the side, if desired.

Easy Substitutions

If you don't have mirin, you can substitute with dry sherry or sake mixed with a pinch of sugar. Broccoli florets or green beans can be used instead of asparagus. For a gluten-free option, use tamari instead of soy sauce.
