FAQ for

Salmon Teriyaki Soba Recipe

How do I make perfect teriyaki sauce for salmon at home?

Combine 100ml soy sauce, 100ml mirin, 50g caster sugar, 2 finely grated garlic cloves and 1 tsp grated ginger in a saucepan. Simmer for about 10 minutes until slightly reduced and syrupy. The key is allowing it to bubble gently to achieve that perfect sticky consistency.

What's the best way to cook salmon to ensure it remains moist and flaky?

Bake salmon fillets at 200°C for just 12-15 minutes until cooked through but still moist in the centre. Brushing with teriyaki sauce before baking adds flavour while helping to seal in moisture. Always look for that translucent-to-opaque transformation without overcooking.

Can I substitute soba noodles with another type of noodle in this recipe?

Yes, you can substitute soba with udon, rice noodles, or even wholewheat spaghetti. Each alternative will change the texture and flavour profile slightly. Soba offers a distinctive nutty taste that pairs beautifully with teriyaki, but other noodles will still work deliciously.

How can I make this teriyaki salmon dish spicier?

To add heat, increase the amount of fresh chilli or leave the seeds in. You could also add sriracha or chilli oil to the teriyaki sauce, or sprinkle with shichimi togarashi (Japanese seven-spice). A dash of wasabi mixed into the sauce will provide a different kind of heat.

What vegetables work best with teriyaki salmon and noodles?

Crisp vegetables with short cooking times work wonderfully - try sugar snap peas, asparagus, baby corn or bell peppers. Leafy greens like pak choi or spinach can be added at the last minute. The key is maintaining vibrant colour and crunch to contrast with the soft noodles.
