Top Tips
Save some glaze: make sure to set about 1/3 of the glaze aside so that you can rub some on at the last minute to make your salmon nice and sticky! Salmon Internal Temperature Bring salmon to room temp: make sure to bring your salmon to room temp (about 10 minutes on the counter) before grilling or baking. This will help it be extra flakey and not stick. Cook until 140ºF: the safe eating temperature of salmon is 145ºF. By cooking the salmon to 140ºF and letting it rest for 5 minutes, the salmon will end perfectly cooked and flakey at 145ºF. Don’t forget the toppings: whatever you do, don’t forget to rub the salmon with the leftover marinade and top with sesame seeds and green onion!
Storage
Store your leftover honey glazed salmon recipe in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. To reheat: reheat in the microwave for 60 seconds.
