Salmon is an extremely versatile fish that can be used in many ways in the kitchen. We marinade it in teriyaki, rice wine and miso sauce. Smoked, salted and raw (sashimi) are also very tasty ways to eat salmon. Our ten salmon products are prepared according to Japanese recipes and can be used in all sorts of dishes. Chef Ohtawara and our home cooks demonstrate this with the following recipes.
Home chef Peter is a hobby cook who likes to turn his tasty dishes into a picture. He prepared our Sake Saikyozuke, salmon in sweet miso sauce, on a bed of pak choi and shiitake with spring onion and asparagus as garnish. Doesn’t that sound delicious?
Home cook Miranda doesn’t always have the time or the energy to cook during the week. She often chooses a fish product from Hokkai. Like the Sake Teriyaki, salmon in teriyaki sauce, which she combines with multigrain rice and stir-fried spinach: “Healthy, nutritious, super-fast and very tasty.
Make your own temaki at home with this simple recipe for home-made temakis. It’s fun to put Sake Sashimi and all the other ingredients in trays on the table so that everyone can fill their own ‘cone’. Rolling the temakis is done in a special way, which we demonstrate in the cooking video.
This is a recipe from Chef Ohtawara. Nothing complicated, just a recipe that is easy to make, quick to prepare and, of course, tastes incredibly good. This Sake Burger with teriyaki sauce can be prepared within 10 minutes and is a big hit with young and old.
Home cook Martine doesn’t consider herself very skilled in the kitchen, so she is pleased with Hokkai’s marinated fish products. The Sake Kasuzuke, or salmon in rice wine sauce, is a favourite: “The fish is wonderfully fresh and very easy to prepare.”
Home cook Kelly likes to eat healthy and often chooses meals with fish, because fish is a source of protein and contains few calories. The Shio Zake, salted salmon legs, are on the table at her home every week with pasta and a home-made spinach-mushroom sauce.
Chef Ohtawara shares his recipe of Sake Saikyozuke, salmon marinated in sweet miso, with vegetables: “The secret of this recipe is to steam the vegetables together with the fish in aluminium foil. This keeps all the vitamins of the vegetables intact, doing your health a big favour.”
