Cook's Tips:
White miso paste, which is typically sold in a tub, adds a savory, umami flavor. In this recipe, it takes the place of anchovy paste, which is traditionally used in Caesar dressing.
You can spritz the top of the salmon with a little oil to make it extra crispy and help the Parmesan melt.
