4 servings
- 4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each), skin-on
- ½ tsp fine sea salt
- ¼ tsp ground turmeric
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
Ingredient noteLow residue diets limit high-fiber foods. Coconut oil is pure fat with no fiber, so it leaves virtually no residue. If you prefer to always avoid coconut oil, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
For the glaze
- 3 tbsp pure maple syrup
- 2 tbsp coconut aminos
Chef's tipSoy sauce is saltier and less sweet; start with less and adjust. - 1 tsp fresh ginger, finely grated
Ingredient noteLow residue diets limit fibrous roots and whole spices. Only about 1/4 teaspoon of finely grated fresh ginger is used per serving, so it is likely Low Residue. If you prefer to always avoid fresh ginger, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
- ¼ tsp ground turmeric
For serving
- 2 scallions, thinly sliced (optional)
Can be omittedscallions

Combine the maple syrup, coconut aminos, grated ginger, apple cider vinegar, and the remaining 1/4 tsp turmeric in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the glaze thickens slightly and coats the back of a spoon, about 3–4 minutes. Watch closely near the end, as the maple syrup can scorch quickly. Remove from heat and set aside. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the glaze in a separate small bowl for serving.
