    Miso gives the salmon an interesting flavor that I really enjoyed.

    I served it with some brown rice and cooked spinach because I was going for quick and easy. No fancy side dishes; the salmon steals the show.

    I made two little changes in my version: adding a little extra soy sauce and baking the fish instead of broiling. My glaze was burning, so I just turned down the oven. Pretty sure that's a user error because my oven is ancient and extremely unreliable.

    Other than that, this salmon is quick, easy, incredibly flavorful, and highly nutritious to boot!

      Thanks so much for the wonderful review, Meme! I'm so happy that you liked the book and feel that it would be a good resource for expectant moms. The salmon looks great and I'm glad that you liked the miso- I use it in a lot of dishes to add flavor. You do have to keep an eye on the glaze when it's under the broiler and if it starts to get too charred, I would recommend moving it to a lower shelf in the oven.

        I am in LOVE with the book! You are a rockstar, Sonali. Thanks for including me in your group that got to review it 🙂 I can't wait to try more dishes -- I've got my eye on those brussels! (and I'll remember to keep it on the lower oven rack for the next batch!)
