Ingredients
  

  • 4 salmon fillets about 6 oz each, skin removed
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter softened
  • 2 tablespoons white miso paste

  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • 1 clove garlic grated

Method
 

  1. Mash together softened butter, miso, rice vinegar, honey, and garlic until fully combined.
