From the Test Kitchen

In this recipe, we’re preparing an elegant glaze for our hearty salmon fillets with white miso paste, maple syrup and a touch of rice vinegar. This delicious balance of sweet and savory perfectly complements fresh udon noodles, kale and cremini mushrooms tossed in a light, citrusy ponzu sauce. Garnished with a sprinkling of crunchy white sesame seeds, it makes for a sophisticated, Japanese-inspired dinner.

Prepare the ingredients:
1 Prepare the ingredients:

Wash and dry the fresh produce. Remove and discard the kale stems; roughly chop the leaves. Thinly slice the mushrooms. Peel and mince the ginger. To make the glaze, in a bowl, combine the maple syrup, miso paste, half the vinegar and ¼ cup of water; whisk until smooth.

Cook the kale:
2 Cook the kale:

Heat a large, dry pan (nonstick, if you have one) on medium-high until hot. Add the kale and ½ cup of water; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 4 to 6 minutes, or until the kale has wilted and the water has cooked off. Transfer to a bowl and set aside in a warm place. Wipe out the pan.

Cook the mushrooms:
3 Cook the mushrooms:

In the pan used to cook the kale, heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the mushrooms. Cook, stirring occasionally, 4 to 6 minutes, or until lightly browned.
