Embark on a culinary journey to the heart of Kyoto with our tantalizing grilled salmon recipe, a harmonious blend of Japanese tradition and modern culinary artistry. This delectable dish captures the essence of Kyoto's rich food culture, where fresh, seasonal ingredients are transformed into exquisite creations.
Our grilled salmon is a symphony of flavors and textures, featuring succulent fillets of salmon marinated in a savory blend of sake, mirin, and soy sauce, then grilled to perfection. The result is a tender, flaky fish with a beautifully caramelized exterior and a delicate smoky aroma.
Accompanying the grilled salmon is a medley of accompaniments that elevate the dish to new heights. Crispy grilled vegetables, such as bell peppers, onions, and zucchini, add a vibrant pop of color and a delightful crunch. A refreshing cucumber salad, tossed in a light vinaigrette, offers a cooling contrast to the richness of the salmon.
To complete the Kyoto experience, the article also includes recipes for two additional dishes that perfectly complement the grilled salmon. The first is a flavorful miso soup, prepared with fragrant dashi broth, silken tofu, and wakame seaweed. The second is a simple yet elegant steamed rice dish, providing a delicate base for the bold flavors of the salmon and vegetables.

GRILLED SALMON KYOTO
The men in my family went on a fishing trip to Alaska. They brought home an abundance of fish. The cooks in the family swapped fish recipes so we all experimented with different way to make the fish. My mom shared this recipe with us and it has become a favorite.-Sandy Zimmerman, Pierre, South Dakota

Tips:
- Select the freshest salmon fillet: Look for a fillet that is firm and has a bright orange color. Avoid fillets that are slimy or have a fishy odor.
- Use a sharp knife to score the salmon: This will help the marinade penetrate the fish and cook it more evenly.
- Marinate the salmon for at least 30 minutes: This will help to infuse the fish with flavor and make it more tender.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat: This will help to sear the salmon and prevent it from sticking to the grill.
- Cook the salmon for 6-8 minutes per side, or until it is cooked through: The salmon is cooked through when it flakes easily with a fork.
- Serve the salmon immediately with your favorite sides: Grilled salmon can be served with a variety of sides, such as rice, vegetables, or salad.
