Mango Glazed Salmon

Submitted by Bobbie S.

"This is a new recipe that I just made tonight for the first time -- and my husband and I totally enjoyed it. The glaze was a snap to make and really complimented the salmon. It's one that we look forward to having again and again. The mango necture I found comes in a can and was in the juice section of my grocery store. I froze half of it to use the next time we make this recipe. Our salmon pieces were more like 8 oz. each and I used the entire glaze. So I think if I were making the 6 pieces, I'd definitely double the glaze portion. I also found out I didn't need to strain the glaze. I just picked out the cinnamon stick and star anise. I think because I used the jarred ginger, there was no real need to strain it."

This was ok. I think the soy sauce kind of overpowered the mango flavor. I had to use powdered ginger b/c that's what I had. I used it on a salmon side and the amount of sauce covered it nicely.
