Salmon in Japanese

2 servings

15 minutes

Japanese-style salmon is a refined dish that combines traditional Japanese flavors with the European tenderness of fish. Soy sauce and sake create a sophisticated marinade base that highlights the natural sweetness of salmon, while ginger adds spiciness and freshness. Light caramelization in hot oil gives the fish an appetizing crispy crust, making it perfect for serving with rice or vegetables. This dish reflects the Japanese philosophy of umami – a harmony of flavors that unfolds with each bite. A special touch is the ginger decoration in the form of hieroglyphs, giving the presentation an exquisite aesthetic reminiscent of the deep culture of the land of the rising sun.
