Fish is always a weekly must and privilege for my family, and this pan-seared crispy skin salmon with ponzu-wasabi mayo is a simple yet flavorful option. It’s quick to make and perfectly complemented by pickled daikon radish & carrots, cucumbers, miso soup with mushrooms, and gyoza.

I remember during my nutrition lab in college when a classmate asked me to remove the skin because he didn’t like it. My professor, however, would never let us waste food, so I kept it on! Turns out, it’s all about cooking the skin right. If it’s crispy, even someone who doesn’t enjoy it might change their mind.
