Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a small saucepan, combine soy sauce, light brown sugar, mirin, honey, rice vinegar, grated ginger, sesame oil, and garlic powder. Whisk the mixture together and bring it to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 5 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and becomes glossy.
  2. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place salmon fillets on a parchment-lined baking sheet, skin-side down. Brush the salmon with the teriyaki sauce. Bake for 15-20 minutes, until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
  3. Prepare the rice according to package instructions, ensuring it is fluffy and fully cooked.
  4. Divide the cooked rice among bowls, place the salmon atop the rice, and add shredded carrots, sliced cucumber, and chopped green onions.
  5. Sprinkle sesame seeds over the top and drizzle extra teriyaki sauce if desired. Serve immediately.
