Sticky Miso Salmon Bowl

Sticky Miso Salmon Bowl

Miso salmon is an easy meal for any night of the week but it gets taken to a whole other level here with the additions of grapefruit and honey. Combining the zest and juice from the grapefruit with honey, miso and a bit of ginger gives the fish a sticky-tangy finish when broiled. The sushi rice is mixed with a humble pat of butter and some sliced scallions, making it a comforting counterpart to this simple fish for an elegant weeknight dinner.

  • Maximize Flavor: To enhance the natural sweetness, pair grapefruit with honey or mint, or use it in cocktails for a refreshing twist.
  • Cutting Techniques: Use a sharp knife to slice grapefruit into segments easily. This approach ensures you get all the juicy goodness without any pith.

Popular Variations

  • Grapefruit Cocktails: Try a Sea Breeze Mocktail or a refreshing Grapefruit Mojito for a summer sipper.
