Asian Pan Seared Salmon Salad.

Are you guys ready for one of the best salads that you will ever make? Seriously though. You guys know me all too well by now and my love for asian foods and salmon. So when you combine the two I am in h-e-a-v-e-n. Some of my top posts are asian inspired recipes. I literally buy soy sauce by the truck load.

Having a good quality soy sauce is important when creating asian recipes. I was so excited to discover Pearl River Bridge Soy Sauce and Gold Plum Chinking Vinegar. They are key to bringing out such amazing flavor in the dressing!Two bottles of soy sauce.

Pearl River Bridge inherits the 3,000 years of soy sauce brewing history and insists on naturally brewing their soy sauce in the traditional way! You guys are going to LOVE the flavor of this soy sauce and it is perfect poured over finished dishes, used as a condiment or dipping sauce. I especially loved their light soy sauce because it was still full of flavor unlike other brands that I have tried. I also discovered Gold Plum Chinkiang vinegar which is considered to be the best black vinegar. Both of these added such amazing flavor and made the Honey Sesame Dressing out of this world!

Soy Sauce+Chinkiang Vinegar+Honey+Garlic+Ginger= True love! This salad dressing is positively addicting and the perfect finishing touch. It is sweet and tangy and comes together quickly. You can use this dressing on top of any type of salad. A veggie salad or chicken salad… which ever you prefer!

Lets just talk about the salmon for a second. I love salmon. Amy favorite way to make salmon is to pan sear it. The edges get nice and crisp and the inside is perfectly tender and flaky. It tops the salad perfectly.

All of the ingredients in this salad are fresh and delicious. It starts with crisp romaine lettuce with red cabbage, shredded carrots, mandarine oranges, red onion, edamame, and topped with crunchy almonds. I loved every single thing about this salad. So many flavors in each bite and I especially loved the mandarine oranges!

Since we are heading into summer and swimsuit season is here I know that you are going to fall in love with this salad just as much as I did! It is light and delicious and the flavor is incredible. It will become a new favorite with the first bite and you will want to make it again and again!

    1. This vinegar is known as a black vinegar. Any vinegar that is similar to that would be a great substitute. I hope you can order or get the vinegar that is recommended though. It makes a huge difference. XOXO

  1. Made this last night and it was AWESOME! Thank you and that soy sauce was easy to find! Very good flavor.
