- 4 Tbsp white miso
Directions
- Preheat oven to 425F.

- Mix butter and miso together and spread over salmon.
- Add a couple of dollops of miso butter on the asparagus and shishitos.
- Sprinkle with Kissed by Binchotan to your liking. (this blend is on the spicier side and a little goes a long way).
- Add lime wheels onto salmon.
- Bake for 10 minutes or until salmon is slightly brown on edges.

Recipe Note
