This Honey Mustard Soy Glazed Salmon is a harmony of sweet, savory, and a gentle touch of heat.

Scallions and sesame seeds finish the dish with freshness and texture, creating a meal that feels comforting, generous, and quietly indulgent. Serve it with steamed rice or seasonal greens, and let the simplicity of well-chosen ingredients shine.
