Tips
  • For a more flavorful salmon, marinate the fillets with the seasoning for at least 30 minutes before baking.
  • If you don't have furikake seasoning, you can substitute a mixture of sesame seeds, dried seaweed, and salt (Find my REEL for alternative seasoning).
  • Add other toppings to your salmon bake, such as sliced green onions, unagi sauce, or bonito flakes.
