Moist Salmon Flakes
Salmon is delicious when cooked as a fillet, but in Japan, it is also popular to enjoy it as Salmon Flakes. When you put them in your mouth, you will experience the rich taste of the salmon, infused with slightly sweet and savory traditional Japanese flavors.
Ingredients
- 2 (6.4oz./180g) salmon fillets
- ½ Tbsp sesame oil
Seasonings:
- 3 Tbsp sake
- 2 Tbsp mirin
- ½ tsp salt
Instructions
- Remove the scales, skin, and bones from the salmon fillets.
- Place the salmon fillets in a pan, add the seasonings (sake, mirin, and salt), and simmer over medium heat for 4 minutes, flipping the fillets halfway.
- Cook the salmon fillets, breaking them into smaller pieces with a spatula.
- Once most of the seasoning liquid has reduced, add sesame oil and cook for an additional 1 minute.
Notes
- You can keep them in an airtight container and store them in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
