How to Make Cedar Board Salmon

  1. Soak a cedar plank in water for at least 24 hours. This prevents it from catching fire during cooking.
  2. Prepare the marinade: In a bowl, whisk together [Insert Marinade Ingredients with Measurements Here, e.g., 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons honey, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon grated ginger, 1 clove garlic (minced)].
  3. Place salmon fillets on the soaked cedar plank. Ensure the salmon is evenly coated with the marinade.
  4. Preheat your grill or outdoor oven to medium heat (around 350°F/175°C).
  5. Carefully place the cedar plank with the salmon onto the preheated grill or oven.
  6. Cook for approximately 25-30 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. The bottom of the plank will char slightly, adding to the flavor.
  7. Remove from heat and let rest for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh herbs like dill or parsley if desired.
