Instructions
- In a small heavy saucepan, combine the maple syrup, water, gingerroot, garlic, red pepper flakes, and salt and simmer until reduced to about ½ cup. Cool the basting sauce.
- Preheat broiler.
- Arrange the salmon, skin side down, on an oiled rack of a broiler pan, and season with salt. Brush the maple sauce over the salmon fillets.
- Broil salmon about 6 inches from heat for 4 minutes. Brush with more sauce if needed and broil until just cooked through, about 6 minutes more.

Notes
- The maple syrup can leave you with a sticky mess to clean. To eliminate that I strongly suggest to line your broiler pan with aluminum foil or parchment paper. You will thank me later.
- Since the broiler heat is high and best for quick cooking, broiling works best for individual salmon portions. If you have a large portion, such as a whole side of salmon, I strongly recommend you bake it at 425 degrees F, which will cook the salmon more gently and evenly. You can always place it under the broiler at the last minute to give it that beautiful, crispy top.
