Braided Salmon

This is such a simple recipe and tastes so great. First made it when I was traveling on assignement and only had a microwave for cooking. I don't braid the salmon, to save time and bother. Have prepared it dozens of times over the years. It comes out tasting wonderfully everytime. Serve it with brown rice, and whatever oriental greens look good at the store, stir fried or steamed.

Very quick and easy and ridiculously tasty considering the minimal time spent on preparation. If there's time, allowing the salmon to marinate for a little while in the sauce might be a good idea. I used somewhat more ginger than the recipe calls for, I might use even more in the future. But then I love ginger...

The directions state to microwave on high 2 minutes until desired doneness. Let stand 2 minutes. Microwave on high 2 minutes. What I'm reading is to get it done in 2 min., let stand and then nuke it for another 2 min.!! Why zap it for 2 additional minutes when it is already done??
