I found that the term 漆塗り or simply 漆 is used to indicated the lacquer applied to materials such as wood, but can I use the same term in a food context? I am talking about that sort of 'glaze' you can find in recipes such as this one. Thank you for your help!

The most generic terms would be:
Noun: 艶{つや}、ツヤ
Noun: 艶/ツヤ出{だ}し ← act of creating/adding ツヤ
Verb: 艶/ツヤを出す
The words グレーズ and グレーズド are not nearly as common. In fact, many would not even be familiar with them.

I think the word you're looking for is 照り焼き. For example, here's a recipe for 鮭の照り焼き:

Thank you for your answer! I think teriyaki is a specific lacquering method. I am looking for a more general term, if there is one. – Marco Jun 16 '18 at 18:00

The word グレーズ and グレーズド are also used. Are you familiar with Cookpad? It's a huge Japanese recipe site, and a good place to learn culinary terms in Japanese. – mamster Jun 16 '18 at 20:51
