Salmon Kimchi Subs
June 28, 2017
Toppings all ready to go.
Marinating salmon.
You could still grill these but the pan frying turned out great. I think it created a much more even browning than I could have gotten on the grill, and they didn't fall apart.
Oh yeaaaaaaaaahhhhh.
The salmon has a rich umami flavor and the honey in the marinade helps create a caramelized crust.
The cucumbers and kimchi help keep this sandwich tasting super fresh.
The combo of chiles, honey, and sesame in the salmon marinade pairs so well with the fatty fish.
A soft roll with just a little crisp on it is the best type of bread for this. If it feels too soft, toss it on the grill or in the toaster for a minute.
