The miso glaze is four ingredients and thirty seconds of whisking. What it does to salmon in twenty minutes of roasting is extraordinary — the sugars caramelize against the fish, the miso deepens and intensifies, and the result is a lacquered, deeply savory crust that tastes like it came from a restaurant that knows what it is doing. This is weeknight cooking at its most quietly impressive.
Serves 2 — 25 minutes
