Honey Soy-Glazed Baked Salmon

Hi Everyone! I apologize for the lack of posts this semester. After I came back from Europe, I had to put my hobbies on hold for a bit. (If you guys want to check out my adventures abroad, take a look at my Oh Crepe! blog.) Summer is now beginning, which means I have more time to explore a myriad of recipes!

So let's get on to cooking!

I made this salmon dish along with some other dishes for a dinner party for some friends.
