Move Over Teriyaki. Maple Salmon is the New Version the Crowd Will Love

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.

    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.

    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 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 didnt boil this is mixed well kn a bowl and its delicious! I spoon some over, wait a bit, and spoon more so it absorbs more. Adding mushrooms to the pan around it, or onions, excellent!
