Salmon is always great for a quick, nutritious dinner in my home, and this quick sauce makes it simple to have a delicious dinner on the table with very little effort. Notes: + I was tempted to add more mustard to the mix, but I prefer to let the sweetness of the hoisin sauce shine above that. + The ½ teaspoon of Sriracha adds just a hint of heat, so don’t be afraid to use it. + I was ready to finish the recipe by reducing the sauce, but the truth is, it was plenty thick just the way it came out of the cooking bag. + I don't typically use garlic powder, but the low heat/short cooking time leaves raw garlic too...raw. The powder works better for this recipe. Don’t miss out on the cilantro for the garnish—it adds a nice, bright finish to all the flavors.
