New member recipe. This week I'm sharing a quick and easy Glazed Miso Salmon Bowl.

I'm on a bit of a fermented food run so just a warning that you might see more recipes that have at least one ingredient from this food category. Miso paste is a fermented food with a salty umami flavor. It's usually made with soybeans. You can also find miso made from chickpeas; I like this brand for miso and they make it with both.

​

Salt in recipes. I use a few kinds of salt in my recipes and I thought it might be helpful to share my salt picks for those wondering which salt to use when. Here is a quick breakdown of what salt I use and where I use it.

I usually list "salt" in a recipe, which means you'll want to use a fine sea salt (it looks like table salt). I use fine sea salt for baking cookies, cakes, muffins, and other baked goodies. I also use fine sea salt when simmering or boiling water to cook vegetables, beans, pasta, spices, aromatics, and herbs.

​Kosher salt is a bit less concentrated (salty) than fine sea salt. I use kosher salt when I'm cooking but don't need to measure the salt exactly, such as when steaming, boiling, or simmering water or sprinkling a pinch of salt on things before cooking them. When I'm cooking with salt, I add a bit at a time and I always taste the food after I salt it to see where it's at. I like kosher salt in these cases because it allows me to salt as I go without over salting things.

I use a bit of finishing or flaky sea salt on top of food that has already been baked or cooked or will be enhanced by a bit of salt sprinkled on top, like cookies and chocolate goodies. My two favorite flaky or finishing sea salts are Maldon and Le Saunier De Camargue.
