Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 (640g) salmon steak or filets, 1 - 1.5 inch thick
  • 4 garlic crushed, cloves
  • 1 - 2 lice (5g) ginger

Teriyaki Sauce:

  • ¼ cup (60ml) soy sauce Japanese or regular
  • ¼ cup (60ml) mirin Japanese sweet cooking rice wine
  • ¼ cup (60ml) sake Japanese cooking
  • ¼ teaspoon (1.25ml) sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons (28g) white sugar

Garnish:

  • sesame seed toasted
  • 1 talk green onion , finely sliced

Thickener:

  • 2.5 tablespoons (22.5g) cornstarch
  • 3 tablespoons (45ml) water

Instructions

  1. Pressure Cook Salmon: Add 4 crushed garlic cloves and 1 - 2 slice (5g) ginger in Instant Pot. Layer 2 salmon steaks on the garlic cloves. To make teriyaki sauce, mix ¼ cup (60ml) Japanese soy sauce or regular soy sauce, ¼ cup (60ml) mirin, ¼ cup (60ml) Japanese cooking sake, ¼ tsp (1.25ml) sesame oil, and 2 tbsp (28g) white sugar together. Pour Teriyaki sauce on the salmon. Pressure Cook at High Pressure for 0 minute (zero minute) and Natural Release for 10 minutes. *Note: 0 (zero) minute is not a typo! Check internal temperature at its’ thickest part with an accurate food thermometer.*Pro Tips: The USFDA recommends cooking salmon to an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C), but anything over 125°F (52°C) is fine for farmed Atlantic Salmon. If the salmon is below 125°F (52°C), place the lid back on and let the residual heat cook the salmon.
  2. Thicken Teriyaki Sauce: Carefully place cooked salmon on a serving plate. *Note: The salmon's internal temperature will continue to rise. Bring the teriyaki sauce back to a simmer by pressing the "Cancel" button, then "Saute" button. Mix 2.5 tbsp (22.5g) cornstarch with 3 tbsp (45ml) cold water in a small mixing bowl. Add the cornstarch mixture one third at a time to thicken the teriyaki sauce until desired thickness. *Pro Tip: You don't have to use all the cornstarch thickener. Use accordingly to your taste.
  3. Serve Instant Pot Salmon with Teriyaki Sauce: Drizzle teriyaki sauce on the Salmon steaks. *Optional: use a blowtorch to slightly caramelize the teriyaki sauce on the salmon. Garnish with sesame seeds and finely sliced green onion. Your delicious & beautiful Teriyaki Salmons are ready to serve. Enjoy!~ :)
