Steps

Take salmon out of fridge 20 minutes before cooking.
Preheat oven to 220C/430F (standard) or 200C/390F (fan). Place shelf about 20cm/8" from the broiler heat source at the top of the oven.
Sprinkle both sides of the salmon with salt and pepper.
Place sesame in shallow dish. Press salmon into sesame seeds to coat on all sides. Place on tray.
Drizzle top with oil.
Bake for 10 minutes. Flick to broiler on high - broil / grill for 3 minutes until the top is a bit golden (or bake for 5 minutes, but won't be as golden). (Note 5)
Remove from oven, rest 3 minutes. Serve with soba and greens, garnished with scallions (optional) and drizzled with Dressing.
Bring a large pot of water to the boil.
Cook soba per packet directions. Add greens for the last 1 minute of cooking.
