Yakizuke is a traditional Japanese method of grilling fish before marinating it in a fragrant sauce. This ancient technique not only brings out the fish's natural flavors but also preserves it longer. This Japanese dish is perfect as a refined appetizer or a light main course, served with rice and grilled vegetables. The marinade, made with tamari (gluten-free soy sauce) , mirin, sake, and ginger, penetrates the salmon, giving it a melt-in-your-mouth texture and a delicious flavor. This naturally gluten-free recipe is easy to prepare and will delight lovers of authentic Japanese cuisine. It's ideal to enjoy hot or cold.
To marinate the salmon: Place the fillet in a shallow dish and pour the hot marinade over it. Let it marinate for 30 minutes at room temperature or for a few hours in the refrigerator for more flavor.
