Honey Glazed Salmon with Garlic Infused Sea Salt
This honey-glazed salmon with Garlic Infused Sea Salt is a sweet-savory seafood dinner built around tender salmon and a glossy glaze. Honey brings sweetness and shine, while Garlic Sea Salt adds savory depth that keeps the glaze balanced instead of overly sweet. Bake the salmon until it flakes easily and glaze it as it cooks so the honey, butter, soy sauce, and Garlic Sea Salt form a glossy sweet-savory finish.

Why Garlic-Infused Sea Salt Works in This Honey Glazed Salmon
Garlic Infused Sea Salt works in honey-glazed salmon because salmon has enough richness to handle garlic, salt, and sweetness together. The sea salt sharpens the glaze, while the garlic flavor supports honey, butter, soy sauce, olive oil, broccoli, sesame seeds, and spring onions. It gives the salmon a more balanced finish without needing a separate garlic rub.

Glaze every 5 minutes with the glaze
To make the glaze:
Add butter to a saucepan
