For a deeper smoky flavor, try grilling the salmon on the cedar plank over medium heat, with the grill lid closed. Watch carefully to prevent the plank from catching fire. If flames occur, spray the plank with water. Soaking the cedar plank is crucial to prevent it from burning in the oven. Ensure the plank is fully submerged for at least 2 hours, or even overnight, for best results. Feel free to adjust the sweetness and saltiness of the marinade to your liking. A pinch of red pepper flakes can add a touch of heat. Leftover salmon can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. It's delicious cold in salads or sandwiches.
