Teriyaki Salmon with Gim
Every Tuesday night is
Teriyaki salmon and sticky rice at our house. This is one of Eleanor’s favorite
dinners of the week. It is such a quick meal to prepare after coming home from
the five o clock Youth Training class. I do admit to get this meal out in a
timely fashion I’ve been known to cook in my Dobok! Another time saver is my Zojirushi
Rice Cooker. Right before heading down to the Dojang I add some sushi rice and
a small handful of forbidden black rice to the cooker. Press the button and
forget about it! Rice is done! Adding a bit of the black rice turns the sushi
rice a light purple that looks so cool.
Along with the lovely soy
glazed salmon and rice you must serve this with Gim. This is what puts this
meal over the top. Gim is roasted nori that is seasoned with sesame oil and sea
salt. You can buy it in large sheets or in small bite size squares. GimMe is
the one I buy. It’s organic and is made in Korea. It comes in fun flavors to,
Teriyaki, Wasabi and Sesame.
So the way to eat your Salmon
is to fill a piece of Gim with a dab of rice and a flake of salmon and pop it
in your mouth. A Umami explosion will
occur, so be ready!
