Ingredients

1 1/2 tablespoons red miso paste 

1/4 cup soy milk 

1 1/2 teaspoons toasted sesame seeds 

1 1/2 tablespoons ginger, minced 

1 teaspoon cayenne pepper 

1/4 cup sake 

2 tablespoons tamari 

2 tablespoons wasabi paste or powder 

4 4-ounce salmon fillets 

Fresh edible flowers, rinsed 

Preparation

In a small bowl, combine miso paste, soy milk, and sesame seeds. Stir until the miso is completely dissolved. Set aside.

Combine ginger, cayenne pepper, sake, tamari, and wasabi in a zippered plastic bag; blend well. Add salmon; seal and toss to coat. Marinate for 1 hour.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place salmon on a greased baking sheet, discarding marinade. Bake until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 13 minutes.

Remove salmon. Transfer to a warm serving plate. Drizzle miso sauce over fillets. Garnish with flowers. Serve warm.
