Salmon in orange marinade with mustard is a refined dish of Russian cuisine that combines the freshness of citrus with the spicy sharpness of mustard. The tender salmon steak is infused with a rich marinade of orange juice, soy sauce, and mustard, giving it a rich flavor with a hint of caramel. Baked in the oven, the fish retains its juiciness while sesame adds a delicate texture. This dish is perfect for special occasions, impressing guests with a harmonious balance of sweetness, saltiness, and mild spiciness. Serving it with asparagus highlights the recipe's sophistication, making it not only delicious but also aesthetically pleasing. This recipe is an excellent example of blending classic Russian flavors with modern culinary techniques.
