Substitutions & Variations: I have included a list of these in the post above.

To Store: In an airtight container in the fridge for 24 hours. Enjoy leftovers of this Asian Salmon recipe cold.

To Freeze: I wouldn’t recommend freezing this recipe.

Tip 1: This is such a great marinade for salmon even if you didn’t want it on kebabs or on the BBQ. You could also marinate the salmon whole and enjoy some grilled teriyaki salmon.

Tip 2: This is a great marinade to make ahead of time. Store the marinade up to 24 hours before grilling and let the salmon marinate for 20-60 minutes. They only take around 10 minutes to cook, depending on the method.

Tip 3: You can substitute salmon with beef, pork, chicken, etc if you aren’t vegan or vegetarian. If you are vegan/vegetarian you could use tofu if you wished.
