Ingredients
For the Fish
- ¼ cup White miso paste
- 1 tablespoon white sugar (optional)
- ¼ cup mirin
- 2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 4 salmon fillets, about ⅓ pound each best for these to be at room temperature so they broil evenly
For the Noodles
- 6 cloves garlic finely chopped
- 1 knob fresh ginger (about 4-5 inches) peeled, finely chopped (about 2 tablespoons once chopped)
- 1 bunch scallions (green onions) thinly sliced
- ½ cup olive oil or neutral light olive oil or grapeseed oil
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
- ½ teaspoon white sugar
- Kosher salt to taste
- 4 ounce packages ramen noodles
Optional Garnishes
- sesame seeds
- cilantro
- scallions
- fresno chiles, sliced
Instructions
For the Fish
- Combine the miso paste, sugar, mirin, soy sauce and sesame oil in a bowl. Reserve a few tablespoons once it’s smooth and combined. With the remaining mixture, douse each salmon filet in it and transfer to a baking sheet, skin side down. Turn on the broiler.
- Transfer the baking sheet to a broiler and broil for 8-9 minutes until cooked. Remove the salmon from the baking sheet to prevent it from over cooking. The salmon top should be golden/black in spots and opaque in the center and it should flake off easily.
For the Noodles
- Combine the ginger, garlic, and two-thirds of scallions together in a large bowl. Heat the oil in a small saucepan over medium high heat for about 2 minutes. Turn the heat off and add the ginger mixture. Let the mixture infuse for 5 minutes before stirring in remaining scallions. Stir in soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, pepper, sesame oil, and sugar; season with salt. Set aside for 15 minutes to let flavors come together. Taste and adjust seasonings.
- Meanwhile, cook noodles according to package directions. Drain and toss with as much or as little scallion sauce as you'd like in bowl. Top with flakes of salmon, reserved miso sauce and assorted garnishes.
Notes
- the recipe calls for ramen noodles, but you can use any thin noodle your prefer. Or not thin – go for udon. The key is really in that sauce so don’t skimp on that.
- below you’ll find the fish called for is salmon, but you can still use cod if you prefer. You just want something that’s medium thick. Nothing too thin.
- the miso marinade – if you’re in a crunch for time, you’re okay to let it sit for just 30 minutes. But the 3 hour mark really can do a LOT for the flavor. And over night is even better if you plan that far ahead! xx
