Notes
- This sauce would also work great on other types of fish as a red snapper or cod.
- Room Temperature Fish: Before cooking, let the salmon sit at room temperature for about 10-15 minutes. This ensures more even cooking, preventing the outside from overcooking while the inside remains undercooked.
- Salmon doesn't have a very long shelf life, so be sure to eat it quickly. In the fridge it will keep for up to 2 days stored in an airtight container. In the freezer this dish will last from 3 - 4 months in an airtight container. Allow to thaw in its container overnight in the fridge or in cold water. The glaze will keep for up to 4 weeks stored in its own airtight container in the fridge.
