Excerpt

Teriyaki Salmon Bowl with Cucumbers, Grilled Pineapple, Zucchini & Avocado
 
½ cup sake
3 tablespoons sesame oil
1 tablespoon soy sauce
2 cucumbers, thinly shaved
Canola oil for brushing
1 pineapple, peeled and cut
into planks about 1 inch thick
2 zucchini, halved lengthwise
 
FOR THE TERIYAKI SAUCE
¼ cup soy sauce
¼ cup mirin
2 tablespoons sake
2 tablespoons firmly
packed light brown sugar
1½ lb salmon fillets,
cut into 4 equal pieces
1 tablespoon canola oil
Steamed sushi rice, for serving
2 avocados, pitted, peeled, and thinly sliced
White sesame seeds, for garnish
Soy sauce, for drizzling
SERVES 4
 
In a bowl, whisk together the sake, sesame oil, and soy sauce. Add the cucumbers and toss to coat. Let stand for at least 15 minutes.
 
Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat and brush with canola oil. Working in batches, grill the pineapple and zucchini until tender-crisp and charred, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board and let cool slightly. Cut the pineapple into 1-inch cubes and the zucchini into
½-inch half-moons. Keep warm.
 
To make the teriyaki sauce, in a small saucepan over high heat, combine the soy sauce, mirin, sake, and brown sugar and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer until thickened, about 3 minutes.
 
Brush half of the teriyaki sauce over the salmon. In a large sauté pan over medium-high heat, warm the canola oil. Add the salmon and sear until cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. The flesh should be opaque and flaky and easily pierced with a paring knife. Remove from the heat and brush with the remaining teriyaki sauce.
 
Divide the rice among 4 bowls. Drain the cucumbers and distribute them evenly among the bowls. Top with the pineapple, zucchini, salmon, and avocado. Garnish with sesame seeds. Drizzle with soy sauce and serve.
