Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
In a small bowl, whisk together the miso paste, soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger until smooth to create the glaze.
Pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel and place them skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
Brush the miso glaze generously over the top and sides of each salmon fillet, ensuring an even coating.
Let the salmon rest for 5-10 minutes to allow the glaze to slightly marinate the fish.
Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and the glaze is slightly caramelized. Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the fillets.
Remove the salmon from the oven and let it rest for a couple of minutes.
Garnish the baked salmon with sliced green onions and sesame seeds before serving.
Serve warm with your choice of sides, such as steamed rice, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad.
