Combine the mirin and sake in a small saucepan.

Add the cane sugar to the saucepan.

Stir in the white miso paste until well combined.

Heat the mixture over medium-low heat on the stovetop, whisking constantly, until the sugar and miso are fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth. Do not boil.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the marinade to cool completely to room temperature.

Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag.

Pour the cooled miso marinade over the salmon fillets, ensuring all pieces are thoroughly coated.

Cover the dish with plastic wrap or seal the bag. Marinate the salmon in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 days. For best flavor, marinate for the full 2 days.

When ready to cook, preheat your broiler. Line a baking tray with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.

Remove the salmon from the marinade, allowing any excess marinade to drip off. Place the fillets on the prepared baking tray.

Broil the salmon for 5-8 minutes, or until the top is caramelized and golden brown, and the fish is cooked through and flaky. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
