Maple Mustard Salmon

We really enjoyed this.  Maple syrup makes a very good glaze.

Ingredients:
Salmon:
2-4 pieces of salmon
1 tablespoon sesame oil
Kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper

Maple Mustard Glaze
2/3 cup maple syrup
1/2 cup soy sauce
3 tablespoons honey mustard
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger

Place the maple syrup, soy sauce, mustard, butter and ginger in a small saucepan and bring to a boil.  Reduce the heat and let the glaze simmer briskly until syrupy and slightly reduced, about 5 minutes, skimming off any foam and stirring to keep the glaze from scorching.  Divide in half.  One half for glazing the fish and the other for serving.

Brush the salmon with the sesame oil and season with the salt and pepper.

Preheat the grill to medium high.

Grill the salmon until done, about 4 minutes a side.  Brush the salmon with the glaze every minute or two.

The finished product with grilled vegetables.
