Start by making the glaze for the salmon.

In a bowl, combine 3 tablespoons of white miso, 2 tablespoons of honey, soy sauce, mirin, and toasted sesame oil.

Reserve 2 tablespoons of the mixture to use as a glaze.

Add a little water and a pinch of cayenne pepper to the remaining mixture to create a sauce.

Let the salmon fillets sit for 20 minutes to absorb the flavors.

Preheat the broiler.

Spray the broiler rack with cooking spray to prevent sticking.

Place the salmon fillets on the sprayed rack and broil for 6-7 minutes until cooked through.

Drizzle the reserved glaze over the salmon after broiling.

Add toasted sesame seeds and chopped scallions on top before serving.
