Remove all skin from the salmon. Place the salmon in a glass dish side by side. The dish is easy to make and doesn't take much time. First, make the glaze by bringing the bourbon, sugar, soy sauce, garlic and mustard to a boil, in a small saucepan, then cooking on a low heat until the liquid reduces by half. Remove salmon from marinade (discard marinade).
