To make this Salmon Marinade, Ina starts by preheating the grill and brushing the grilling rack with oil. She then lays the salmon skin side down on a cutting board and cuts it into 4 equal pieces. In a small bowl, she whisks together the Dijon mustard, soy sauce, olive oil, and minced garlic to create the marinade. Half of this mixture is drizzled onto the salmon, which is then allowed to marinate for 10 minutes before grilling.

How To Store Salmon Marinade
In The Fridge:
If you’ve made extra salmon marinade, you can store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Make sure to separate any unused marinade from that which has come into contact with the raw salmon to avoid cross-contamination.
In The Freezer:
For longer storage, you can freeze the salmon marinade in a freezer-safe container. It will keep its flavor for up to 3 months. When you’re ready to use it, thaw it in the fridge overnight before marinating your salmon.
