Easy and nourishing food is on the menu when you pop a side of salmon into the oven. The salmon gets an Asian twist with ginger, soy, vinegar, and honey. If you don't have rice vinegar on hand, you can easily use regular vinegar instead. However, it's important to use a reduced-salt soy sauce, otherwise the dish risks becoming too salty. If you can't find one, use half the amount of regular soy instead.
Enjoy the baked salmon side with rice and stir-fried vegetables if you like. It also tastes wonderful with a cabbage salad and an Asian dressing.

Peel the ginger and cut it into julienne (fine strips).

Bring the soy sauce, honey and rice vinegar to a boil together with the ginger.
