Need to serve a big side of salmon to a big crowd? If teriyaki is your typical go-to, up your game with this maple salmon.
My mother has been making this maple salmon for awhile, and then my sister began making it. It’s a favorite, and honestly, not one of us remembers how this salmon originated! It’s more up-to-date than teriyaki, but anyone who typically loves that sweet Asian flavor will love this.

Hi. Can this recipe be used for salmon slices too? Also can it be served cold?
Yes and room temperature is perfect
I have the same question about the salmon slices! Thanks
Do you bake uncovered?
Yes.
How long would this be good in the fridge?
3-4 days.
How big of a side of salmon would this cover? Or how many slices of salmon? Approximately…
The side of salmon pictured looks like a large tail…
The sauce is enough for 8-10 slices of salmon or a full side.
We should pour the sauce on the raw salmon while it’s still hot??
Let it cool a few minutes. Can be warm.
I made this for Yom Tov. It was delicious!!
We enjoyed dipping our challah into the sauce….
I made 7 slices of salmon and there was tons of sauce…
Thanks for a great recipe will definitely make this again…
How did you cut the cucumbers? Are they peeled or just sliced very thin?
Can I skip the scallions? Are they for garnish or for taste?
We love them for the taste when you bake it. Garnish you dont need to add.
Can I replace maple syrup with pancake syrup??
Can I prepare the sauce and pour on the fish and then freeze it before I bake? Prefer to bake salmon day of and making it for Hag.
I make this for shabbos every week, so good
