How do I store and reheat this salmon?

Store the salmon in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, pop it in the air fryer at 400°F for 2-3 minutes or heat it in a pan over medium heat until warm.

Can I make this salmon on a grill?

Yes! Follow the same instructions but set your grill to high and cook for 8-10 minutes skin-side down, or until the internal temperature reaches your preferred temperature.

Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark

Instructions

Add miso, maple syrup, sriracha, soy sauce, and rice vinegar to a small mixing bowl and mix until no large clumps remain.
Place the salmon fillets on a plate, skin-side down (if your salmon has skin), then pat them dry with a paper towel.
Spread a generous amount of the miso mixture on the top and sides of each salmon fillet. We use a basting brush, but a spoon works too.
Place the salmon fillets in the basket of your air fryer (skin-side down if your salmon has skin) and cook at 400°F for 7-9 minutes, or until the miso sauce has caramelized and the salmon easily flakes with a fork. The internal temperature should be anywhere from 125°F (medium rare) to 145°F (well-done), depending on your preference. We eat ours around 130°F.
Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions if you desire.

Notes

Miso is a paste made from fermented soybeans. It has a creamy texture and a nutty umami flavor. White miso has the mildest flavor compared to other varieties. You can find it in the Asian aisle of most grocery stores.

The longer you cook salmon, the tougher it gets. If you like soft, tender salmon, cook it to medium rare, or until the internal temperature is about 125°F. That will happen closer to the 6-7 minute mark. If you like well-done salmon, cook it to 145°F, which will take around 8-9 minutes.
