If you can find wild-caught Pacific salmon, that is always the best option. It has a more vibrant color, firmer texture, and richer flavor compared to farmed salmon. However, farmed salmon can still be a good alternative. Make sure to buy from a reputable source such as those imported from Norway. You can also look for labels that indicate sustainable farming practices. Here are a few of the most common cuts you can choose from:
Salmon fillet – flat and not as thick as other cuts. I recommend using salmon filler for this baked salmon soy sauce recipe. Salmon steak – a thick, cross-section cut around the fish that looks like a piece of steak. It usually has a bone in the center. You may need to increase the cooking time if you’re using it in this recipe. Supreme cut – a boneless cut from salmon fillet, which is usually rectangular in shape. It’s considered a prime cut for fillets, so it’s also a good option for this recipe.
The Asian soy sauce glaze is so easy to make, even for beginners, and it has a savory, caramelized flavor that pairs perfectly with the mild yet buttery flavor of salmon.
