Salmon with shallots and sweet mirin sauce is one of my favorite recipes for entertaining. It's great for a room full of hungry eaters or a quaint romantic dinner for two - not to mention kids love it! The sauce is so tasty that people always ask for more, so I usually make extra. I have also found that any left-over sauce can be kept frozen for quite a while.
Mirin Soy Sauce
(serves approx. 4, sauce can be doubled or halved easily)
3-4 Shallots, chopped
1 -2 Tbs Butter
3/4 C Mirin
2 Tbs Rice wine vinegar
2 tsp Soy Sauce
Salmon (I usually account for roughly 6 oz. person)
Optional: Sprinkle with chilies and scallions for garnish.
Saute shallots in the butter until soft and translucent, about 8 mins. Add the following 3 ingredients. Lower the heat and reduce the sauce until it reaches the consistency or maple syrup, about 10 mins.
Prepare the salmon to your liking: grilled, broiled, baked, etc.
Pour some of the sauce over the salmon to serve. Serve remaining sauce on the side.
