- 1 medium Garlic clove, minced
- 1 tablespoon Maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon Low-sodium soy sauce

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a small bowl, combine the low-sodium white miso paste, rice vinegar, grated ginger, minced garlic, maple syrup, low-sodium soy sauce, sesame oil, and black pepper. Mix well until fully combined.
Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Place the fillets, skin side down, on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
