How To Cook Satisfying Teriyaki Salmon

Satisfying Teriyaki Salmon - Aside from being quick and easy, I like Teriyaki salmon because it has this delectable taste that makes my taste buds happy. Of course, salmon is also healthy because it is rich in Omega 3 fatty acids which is said to be good for our heart.
In order to maximize the health benefits of Teriyaki salmon, I served this over brown rice. Most of you have not tried brown rice. To those who did, some prefer white rice over it because the texture of brown rice might not be pleasing. Don’t worry, the taste of this dish compliments well with brown rice. I’m sure that you will like the combination like I did.

Satisfying Teriyaki Salmon Additional Trivia
Teriyaki is a cooking technique used in Japanese cuisine in which foods are broiled or grilled with a glaze of soy sauce, miring, and sugar.
Fish yellow tail, marlin, skip jack tuna, salmon, trout, and mackerel – is mainly used in Japan, while white and red meat – chicken, pork, lamb, and beef – is more often used in the West. Other ingredients sometimes used in Japan include squid, hamburger steak, and meatballs.
The word teriyaki derives from the noun teri , which refers to a shine or luster given by the sugar content in the tare , and yaki which refers to the cooking method of grilling or broiling. Traditionally the meat is dipped in or brushed with sauce several times during cooking.
teriyaki
The tare is traditionally made by mixing and heating soy sauce and sake, or mirin; and sugar or honey. The sauce is boiled and reduced to the desired thickness, then used to marinate meat which is then grilled or broiled. Sometimes ginger is added and the final dish may be garnished with spring onions.
Teriyaki sauce
In North America, any dish made with a teriyaki-like sauce (often even those using foreign alternatives, such as wine, to sake or mirin), or with added ingredients such as sesame or garlic (uncommon in traditional Japanese cuisine), is described as teriyaki. The sauce used for Teriyaki is generally sweet although it can also be spicy. Pineapple juice is sometimes used as it not only provides sweetness but also bromelain enzymes that help tenderize the meat. Grilling meat first and pouring the sauce on afterward or using sweet sauce as a marinade are other non-traditional methods of cooking teriyaki. Teriyaki sauce is sometimes put on chicken wings or used as a dipping sauce. Source: Teriyaki
