Salmon and Daikon in Garlic Butter Miso Sauce Recipe (2024)

Delicious! We didn’t have enoki mushrooms, so we used thinly sliced creminis, and added a squeeze of lemon (we also had neither yuzu nor Meyer lemon at hand ) at the end — which truly added brightness while somehow also deepening the umami from the dashi and the miso. My husband broiled the salmon fillet just briefly to give it a hint of char before adding it to the pot. The broth was silky and incredibly satisfying; and for such a light dish, we all felt quite full. Guests and family loved it.

Delicious! Took much longer to cook the fish, but still pretty fast.

This is delicious! The earthy saltiness of miso combined with the tempered sweetness of the mirin and sake, and the irresistible flavor of garlic butter create a powerful flavor bath for the salmon and vegetables.

This was delicious. I used parsnip because I couldn’t find daikon, and used regular lemon juice at the end. Otherwise followed the recipe to the letter. This is at once rich and light, we cleaned our bowls. Tasted like a restaurant would make it, not a home chef. Two thumbs up!

I couldn't find enoki mushrooms or dashi, but I did substitute with both shiitake and cremini mushrooms and used chicken broth. I also added some nori while cooking and a dab of wasabi at the end. This was a delicious recipe!

Just making it now. Even with salmon filets that are medium thickness we're already looking at 11 minutes cooking time. I just hope the veggies are not soggy by the time the fish is done.

I love this recipe. Like others, I have had to sub out ingredients. Have packets of dashi from H-Mart. sh*take instead of enoki mushrooms and halibut in place of salmon.

My toddler’s absolute favourite dinner. It’s easy, fast, light, and healthy. Highly recommend. I like to add fresh ginger to broth. Serve it with a little white rice.

Omg this was amazing. Used a rice koji miso as that was in the fridge and wowowow. Served with somen but soba or rice would have been great. 10/10 will trade again.

Made without daikon subbed more carrots and used rice win vinegar and sugar sub for mirin and used shaoxing wine as sub for sake and used furikake/fried garlic/Thai dried pepper flakes subbed for togarishi. So good!

i am cooking it next week for a dinner party. no need to test it as Naoko's recipes are ALWAYS perfect and my husband, our guests and i ALWAYS love them...without exception. i cant wait to taste this one as well. jg

Absolutely delicious! Go buy mirin and sake if you don’t have it, you will not regret it. I’m sure whoever is trying this recipe will repeat. I replaced daikon with parsnip, dashi with chicken stock and enoki mushroom with frozen button mushrooms, all because I couldn’t find the original ingredients. Even with all the replacements, this recipe is a winner.

Cooked sans carrot and served it over jap chae 10/10

Truly outstanding recipe. I made it as written except I used shiitake mushrooms. It will go into the regular rotation, I get lots of compliments. I realize you can modify the vegetables as long as you have the magic umami powerhouse of the dashi, mirin, sake, and miso.

This is yummy! I wanted to use what I had in the house as well as ramp up the vegetable quotient. So added some shredded green cabbage below the layer of daikon (used purple daikon), used dried sh*take instead of the enoki (and added some of the mushroom soaking liquid as well.) Scallions on top instead of dill and used some Shichimi togarashi with yuzu in it that I had gotten at Toiro! Really delicious.

This was super yummy, event with swaps--soy sauce instead of dashi, baby bella mushrooms instead of enoki--and no dill or shichimi togarashi

I don't know anywhere that sells 1/2 lb daikon. The smallest I could find was 3 lbs. Now what?

Need more than 1 1/4 C of dashi for 4 servings to look like the broth in photo. I tested the recipe for one, used almost 3/4 cup. Five minutes veggies/salmon cooked perfectly. Used shiitakes, served w/baby bok choy & 100% buckwheat soba. Yuzu juice at supermarket is $10.29 for small bottle, so used lemon. but will buy when I make again for guests. Don't skip shichimi togarashi & dill. This recipe is a winner!!!

Can I give this 10 stars? This was as good as it gets for home cooking (and for most restaurants I know). I substituted (because I couldn't get) a ramen broth (Ocean's Halo brand) for the dashi and shiitake mushrooms for the enoki and didn't have dill. It cooked quickly and the end result was better than I imagined it would be. Served over jasmine rice in a soup bowl. This dish was a wow, wow.

What color miso is recommended?
