Take the salmon out of the fridge 15 minutes before you start to prepare your breakfast. Add the filets to a bowl with the sake, mirin, and soy. Turn to coat and let marinate at room temperature while you prepare the rest of the breakfast.

Turn your oven on to the broil function.

Start off by making the rice: place the rice and water in a pot with a tight fitting lid and bring to a boil over medium heat. Turn the heat down to the barest simmer and cover with the lid and cook for 17 minutes without peeking. When 17 minutes are up, let sit, with the lid on, for 10 minutes.

While the rice is cooking, make the miso soup: heat the dashi up in a pot over medium high heat. When hot, add the wakame and tofu cubes. Turn the heat off and use a ladle to scoop up some of the hot dashi. Use a small whisk or spoon to mix the miso paste into the ladle of dashi. When smooth and blended, add the ladle of dashi and miso back into the pot. Keep on very low heat to keep warm. Don’t bring it back up to a boil because that will kill off all of the healthy probiotics.

Place the salmon on a rack in a baking sheet or on tin foil. Broil for 10 minutes or until cooked through and slightly browned, brushing with the marinade about halfway through.

While the salmon is cooking, whisk together the eggs, soy, mirin, and sugar in a bowl. Heat up a tamagoyaki pan (or regular frying pan) over medium low heat. Add a bit of oil to the pan and use a paper towel to evenly spread it. Add a small amount of the egg mixture and swirl to coat the bottom of the pan. When the egg is solid, use a spatula to fold the egg over onto itself in half. You want to fold it at 2 inch intervals so at the end you have flat omelette that’s about 2 inches wide. Don’t flip the eggs, just push them to the end of the pan. Use your oily paper towel to spread a tiny bit more oil in the pan and add a bit more of the eggs. Lift up the layer of already cooked eggs so that a bit of the new eggs connect, so they can cook together into a solid sheet. When the new layer of egg is almost cooked, fold the eggs over onto themselves again. Repeat until all the egg mixture is used. Let cool slightly and slice. Alternatively, make soft scrambled tamagoyaki.

Scoop out some rice into a bowl. Serve up the miso soup, salmon, and tamagoyaki, along with some pickles. Enjoy!
