Instructions
- 1
Preheat your broiler to high. Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- 2
In a small bowl, whisk together the white miso paste, yuzu juice, mirin, soy sauce, and sesame oil until smooth. This is your yuzu-miso glaze.
~2 min - 3
Place the salmon fillets on the prepared baking tray. Spoon or brush the yuzu-miso glaze generously over the top of each salmon fillet.
~3 min - 4
Broil the salmon for 8-12 minutes, or until cooked through and the glaze is caramelized and slightly bubbly. Cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of the salmon.
~10 min - 5
While the salmon is broiling, lightly toast the nori sheets over a low flame on a stovetop or by briefly placing them in a dry pan until slightly crispy. Be careful not to burn them. Once cooled, crumble them into small flakes.
~2 min - 6
Divide the cooked Japanese rice into serving bowls. Place a glazed salmon fillet on top of each bowl of rice.
~1 min - 7
Sprinkle the crispy nori flakes and toasted sesame seeds over the salmon and rice. Serve immediately.

Tips
- For extra crispy nori, you can toast it in a dry skillet over medium-low heat for about 30 seconds per side, or until it becomes fragrant and brittle. Watch it closely as it burns easily.
- If you don't have yuzu juice, a combination of lemon and lime juice (2 parts lemon to 1 part lime) can be used as a substitute, though the flavor profile will be slightly different.
