MISO-GLAZED SEA BASS
Fish baked in miso is quintessentially Japanese, but I first learned about it years ago from the very American James Beard. Miso marries well with oily fish like salmon, mackerel or black cod, but mild firm-fleshed fish like sea bass or halibut also make fine candidates. Simply coat fish fillets or steaks with a mixture of miso, sake, mirin and a little ginger. An egg yolk may be added to help burnish and glaze the fish under the broiler. Serve with a pile of wilted greens dabbed with sesame oil.

Steps:
- Lay fish slices in a shallow glass or earthenware baking dish. Put white and red miso, sake, mirin, soy sauce, ginger and sugar in a small bowl and stir well.
- Dot half the miso mixture evenly over fish, then rub with fingers to lightly coat slices. Leave to marinate 10 to 15 minutes. Heat oven to 400 degrees.
- Beat egg yolks into remaining miso mixture. With a spoon, smear tops of fish slices with this egg-enriched mixture. Bake on top shelf of oven for 6 to 8 minutes, until fish is firm, then place pan under broiler to glaze. Broil 1 to 2 minutes until topping begins to brown. With a spatula, transfer fish to serving platter.
- Meanwhile, bring 4 cups well-salted water to a boil in a wide stainless steel skillet. Add mustard greens and cook until wilted, about 1 minute. Drain in colander, rinse briefly with cold water, then press out excess water with wooden spoon. Transfer to serving dish. Drizzle with sesame oil and garnish with thin slices of pickled ginger.

GRILLED MISO FISH FILLETS
Steps:
- Rinse the fish steaks under cold, running water and drain thoroughly in a colander. Cut the steaks into six pieces and place in a bowl.
- Add the Miso Marinade to the fish steaks and toss lightly to coat the fish steaks. Cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate. Let marinate for at least 1 hour, or for several hours.
- Prepare a medium-hot fire for grilling and place the grill about 3 inches above the coals. Remove the fish from the Miso Marinade, spreading the Marinade with your hands so that there is a light coating. Arrange the fish steaks on the grill and cook about 5 to 6 minutes on each side, or until the flesh is opaque all the way through. Alternatively you may broil the fish about 7-9 minutes on each side, or until the fish flakes when prodded with a knife. The miso glaze should bubble and brown at the edges. Remove and serve with steamed rice and stir-fried or steamed vegetables.
MISO BUTTER
Years ago, David Chang of Momofuku showed me how to create a fantastic compound butter with miso. Use it melted on fish, chicken or steak (lots of umami); on asparagus, broccoli or carrots; or drizzled on a baked sweet potato (or a regular baked potato).

Tips:
- Choose the freshest fish possible. The fresher the fish, the better it will taste. Look for fish that is firm and has a mild, briny smell.
- Use a variety of seasonings. Miso, butter, and lemon are all classic flavors that pair well with fish. But don't be afraid to experiment with other seasonings, such as herbs, spices, and citrus fruits.
- Cook the fish until it is just cooked through. Fish is a delicate protein, so it is important not to overcook it. Cook the fish until it is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
- Serve the fish immediately. Grilled fish is best served immediately, while it is still hot and flaky. You can garnish the fish with fresh herbs, lemon wedges, or a drizzle of olive oil.
Conclusion:
Miso butter grilled fresh catch bass fillet is an easy and delicious way to cook fish. By following these tips, you can make sure that your fish is cooked perfectly and that it is full of flavor. So next time you have a fresh catch, give this recipe a try!
