Restraint and moderation are two concepts that I have trouble understanding and putting into practice.
At first I only ate half of the Oreo fudge bar I made yesterday. Today, I ate 2 whole, larger than the size of my palm slices consecutively. To say I had a sudden burst of energy is an understatement - on the plus side I powered through a decent amount of laundry and house work before crashing on the couch. To counteract my sugar-heavy morning/afternoon I thought I would be a good girl and make something super healthy (but filling - no light salads for me) for dinner.
ease: 5/5.
prep time: 39mins - 9mins for glaze, 30mins for marinating.
cook time: 6mins.
total: 45mins.
taste: 3.5/5. It was nice; the ginger added a nice spicy dimension whilst the honey and orange juice added a sour sweetness. 6mins under the broiler was not enough; I like my salmon pink, but the middle of the fish was completely raw - too chewy for my taste. I served mine with steamed snow peas and rice.
would I make it again: No. I prefer the mirin glazed salmon over this.
