Instructions
Cooking Mode
  1. Check to make sure there are no bones left in the salmon fillet, and then cut it into two pieces.
  2. Mix together the soy sauce, yuzu juice, sugar, salt, sesame oil, honey, piri-piri, and ginger in a bowl. Taste it—it should have a distinct saltiness, a fresh acidity, and a mild heat. Adjust the amount of piri-piri to taste.
  3. Place the salmon in a plastic bag or a rimmed dish. Pour the mixture over the salmon and rub it in evenly on both sides. Seal the bag or dish and let it sit in the refrigerator for 24 hours, turning the salmon halfway through so the flavors distribute evenly.
  4. Remove the salmon from the bag or pan and pat it dry lightly with paper towels.
  5. Cut into thin slices and serve them on a platter, topped with toasted sesame seeds.

If you don't want to include salmon on your Christmas dinner table, it can be served as a separate dish with accompaniments such as pickled onions, chili mayonnaise, and cilantro.
