Cooking Instructions
- 1
Take one salmon out of the package and lay on a cutting board. Remove all bones in fish and set aside. Do this for all 3 half fillets. I like to take a paring knife and cut the bottom bones off the fish. Discard the bones and place all 3 fillets back in the package and set aside for now.

Cut up the yellow onion first. You want to cut the onion vertically instead of horizontally. Cut the onion into 1/4 thick slices. Do this until the onion is fully chopped and set aside. Now chop up your Shitake or Shimeji mushrooms, Carrot and Green onion and set aside.

Now, take your 3 sheets of aluminum foil and lay them out in a row on your cooktop or stove. The length of the foil just needs to be longer than the length of the fish by like 1 inch. Now take 1 tbsp of the room temperature butter and spread it across the center of the foil about the length and width of the fish fillet.
Do this on all 3 foils. - 4
Now place the onion slices across the butter making like a bed of onion on each foil.

Now we come back to the salmon. Sprinkle the crazy or everything salt on both sides of the fillets just so it has some flavor. (Don't add too much) Place the salmon on top of the onions in each foil. Now portion out the shitake or shimeji mushrooms, carrots, and green onion. Use a little less of the green onion as this is a garnish as well.

Now here is where you want to wrap the salmon with the foil. It's pretty easy if you follow these steps. Start with the top and side take both hand and pinch the corners together making a half boat. Do this same exact thing on the bottom and your boat should look like the photo below.

Now add 1 tbsp of cooking sake to each boat and seal them up for cooking. Make sure you seal them up somewhat tight that way the steam can't escape. Now place a large skillet on the burner and turn it to medium-high or medium if you have a gas stove. Now place the 3 foil boats directly into the skillet and cover with a lid and cook for approximately 3 minutes.

Once cooked for 3 minutes remove the lid and lower the flame down to medium-low and cook for another 6 minutes. Once the 6 minutes are up, turn off the heat and remove the hot foils with a tongs and set on each serving plate. Set the plates on the dinner table and be careful when opening the foil as the steam is very hot and could burn you. Open the foil only enough to were it's and open boat and you eat directly from inside of the foil. Garnish with more green onion.

Add a splash of Yuzu Ponzu (Optional) but gives the fish a good Zing. I hope you liked the recipe and let me know how your turns out. Arigato from The Food Dude!

Salmon Baked in Foil Salmon Baked in Foil
My mom used to make these in a pan, but I can prepare side dishes while these are steaming in the oven, so I changed the recipe like this...When closing the aluminum foil in step 4, if you fold 1 cm of each end 2-3 time and again in the center, then the steam will not escape.When eating, I think adding a bit of soy sauce or ponzu sauce, if you prefer, is delicious.When opening the aluminum foil, it is really hot, so be careful not to burn yourself. For 3 people. Recipe by meg115 cookpad.japan -

Salmon Cooked In Foil With Creamy Miso and Cheese Salmon Cooked In Foil With Creamy Miso and Cheese
In the Sanuki region (in Kagawa prefecture) miso is a must in oden (fish cake stew)! When I had some miso left over from making oden, I tried adding it to foil-wrapped salmon, and the result was surprisingly creamy and delicious. Since then it's become a firm family favorite!It's also delicious if you add some ground sesame seeds to the miso.You can use melting or non-melting type sliced cheese. The non-melting type has a stronger flavor, which I prefer. It will still melt though. You don't need to oil the foil or the frying pan.The mixed miso will be sweeter with white miso, but if you don't have it just use the miso you have on hand and adjust the sweetness with sugar.
