This teriyaki salmon stir fry is served with savory soba noodles. Image Credit: Inquiring Chef This teriyaki salmon stir-fry is the definition of comfort food: Tender pieces of salmon dripping in a sweet and savory teriyaki sauce made from scratch, all served with slurp-able soba noodles. Yum. Whisking together your own homemade teriyaki sauce is a terrific way to control the amount of sugar and salt in your dish. You still get the restaurant flavors that you crave, but just in a more nutritious form and from the comfort of your own kitchen. If you accidentally overcook your soba noodles, and they get too gummy (hey, it happens), don’t fret. Luckily there’s an easy fix: Simply rinse them with cold water, then plunge them in an ice bath. This helps wash away the surplus starch (which is the source of the gumminess). Get the Teriyaki Salmon Stir Fry recipe and nutrition info at Inquiring Chef.
