Instructions

  1. Remove any pin bones from the 200 g of salmon fillets, trim off visible bloodlines or silvery membranes, then rinse with cold water and pat dry.
  2. Rub both sides with 1 tsp sake, if using.
  3. Salt both sides with 3-4 g of salt, sprinkling from a height for an even coat.
  4. Place on a wire rack in an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, preferably overnight.
  5. Preheat the grill or broiler to medium-high. Pat the salmon dry with kitchen paper.
  6. Place the salmon skin-side towards the heat and grill for 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and leave it in the residual heat for 2 minutes.
  7. If the underside still looks raw, flip and grill the other side for 1-2 minutes until cooked through.
  8. Serve with grated daikon (daikon oroshi) and a sudachi, cut for squeezing.
