Notes:

  1. If you don't have rice vinegar, you can use apple cider vinegar or white wine vinegar instead.
  2. You can also add some red pepper flakes to the glaze if you want a bit of spice. 
  3. Make sure to not overcook the salmon, as it can become dry and tough. The internal temperature of the salmon should reach 145°F. 
  4. You can also grill the salmon on a barbecue instead of baking it in the oven. Just be sure to oil the grill grates well so that the salmon doesn't stick.
