Instructions:

Step 1: Preheat and Prepare

Preheat your oven to a toasty 400°F (200°C).

Step 2: Marinade Magic

In a small bowl, work your culinary wizardry by mixing together the honey and low-sodium soy sauce. This delectable mixture is going to transform your salmon into a flavor explosion.

Step 3: Salmon Soak

Place your salmon pieces in a plastic zipper bag, and pour the honey-soy mixture over them. Seal the bag and let the salmon bask in this heavenly bath for 30 minutes inside the refrigerator. Trust us; it's worth the wait!

Step 4: Baking Brilliance

Line a baking dish with non-stick foil to make your cleanup a breeze. Arrange your marinated salmon in the dish and pour the remaining marinade over the top. Sprinkle the sesame seeds over the salmon to add a delightful crunch. Now, pop it into the preheated oven and let it bake for 10-12 minutes until your salmon reaches the peak of perfection.

Step 5: Wasabi Whirlwind

Once your salmon is out of the oven, prepare for the final flourish! Top each piece with a touch of wasabi paste. Be cautious; wasabi has a fiery kick! Adjust the amount to suit your spice tolerance.

Step 6: Pickled Ginger Parade

Complete this culinary masterpiece by garnishing your salmon with a generous serving of pickled ginger. Its tangy, zesty goodness pairs perfectly with the honey-soy glaze and wasabi kick.

Notes:

  • To create the perfect meal, serve your Honey Soy Glazed Salmon with a side of steamed rice and some stir-fried vegetables. If you're wondering where to find the pickled ginger and wasabi, head to the "International Food" aisle or the sushi section of your local grocery store. And remember, wasabi usually comes in a powder form that only requires a bit of water to awaken its fiery flavor.
  • Now, you're all set to savor this delectable creation. Enjoy your journey into the world of flavors with Honey Soy Glazed Salmon!
