Miso Roasted Salmon

Valentina P
So easy, and so good. Whisk together a simple 4-ingredient miso sauce, slather it on salmon, and then roast it until perfectly tender. The sauce helps keep the salmon moist inside, and salty-sweet on the outside. I use salmon in this recipe, but this would work equally well with black cod.
