Soy Sauce Marinated Raw Salmon

If you love salmon sashimi and raw fish in general, you might want to try soy sauce marinated raw salmon. Marinating the salmon in soy sauce overnight adds a rich depth of flavour and umami to the fish, and also creates a buttery texture.

ingredients:

• 500g sashimi grade salmon
• 1/2 cup light soy sauce
• 1/4 cup mirin
• 1 tbsp sugar
• 1 cup water
• 1/2 onion
• 1 green onion
• 2 chilli
• 3 garlic

in the marinade container:

• 1/2 onion, sliced
• 2 chilli pepper, sliced
• 1/2 lemon, sliced

serve with:

• white rice
• chopped green onions

steps to making soy sauce marinated raw salmon:

1. In a small saucepan, add soy sauce, mirin, sugar, water, onion, green onions, chilli, garlic and water. Bring to a boil for 2-3 minutes. Set aside and let it cool down completely.
2. In an airtight container, add a layer of sliced onion, followed by sliced raw sashimi-grade salmon, lemon slices and chilli pepper. Add the soy sauce marinade, making sure it completely covers the salmon. Refrigerate and let it marinate overnight.
3. Serve salmon on a bed of white rice with chilli peppers, onions, salmon roe, or whatever you like!

tips:

1. Make sure to let the soy sauce marinade cool down completely before pouring it together with the raw salmon! Even a warm sauce can cook the salmon, and we don’t want that.
2. If you want to reuse the marinade sauce, you can boil it again and use it for up to a week.
