Add the granulated sugar and miso paste to the saucepan. Whisk continuously until all ingredients are well combined and the mixture is smooth and uniform in color. Remove from heat.

Pour the prepared miso marinade into a glass rectangular dish. Place the salmon pieces into the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Pour any remaining marinade over the salmon to cover.

Cover the glass dish tightly with plastic wrap, pressing it down directly onto the salmon to ensure it is submerged in the marinade. Refrigerate the salmon overnight (for at least 8 hours, up to 24 hours).

Place the baking sheet with salmon under the preheated broiler. Broil for 7-10 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and the top is golden brown and slightly caramelized. Keep a close eye on it to prevent burning, as broilers can vary in intensity.
