    It was a little too tangy, so I adjusted it by adding mirin. I was glad to hear him say it was delicious. If salmon is cheap again, I think I’ll make it again.

  • 🇯🇵 User from Japan

    I made this with king salmon. It was light and easy to eat, and incredibly delicious. I’ll definitely make this again.

  • 🇯🇵 User from Japan

    It was easy to make, and cleanup was simple since there were only a few dishes. My kids don’t like mizuna, so I used a bagged cut salad instead.

  • 🇯🇵 User from Japan

    I think half the amount of oil is enough.

    I wanted something light and refreshing for the hot summer, so I tried making this. The lemon’s tang, the kick of wasabi, and the crisp texture of mizuna made the salmon even more delicious.
