In this recipe from our cookbook “ Milk Street 365: The All-Purpose Cookbook for Every Day of the Year,” we combine miso, soy sauce and honey to make a savory-sweet, umami-rich marinade for meaty, fat-rich salmon.
Honey, miso and soy create an umami-rich marinade for rich, meaty salmon Traybakes are the ultimate in weeknight ease, but they often suffer from unexciting flavors and a lack of textural contrast.
For a dinner that’s anything but lackluster, we lean on a trio of high-impact ingredients and add the vegetable and fish in stages, so everything comes out of the oven perfectly cooked.
Some of the mixture is set aside and combined with orange juice and zest, creating a bright sauce for drizzling over the finished dish.
While the fish marinates, the broccolini gets a head start roasting in the oven.
