Ingredients

¼ cup sake
¼ cup miso paste
¼ cup mirin (Japanese sweet wine)
2 tablespoons soy sauce

MISO-GLAZED FISH

Miso-Glazed Fish image

Most recipes for miso-glazed fish are for salmon, because fatty fish are well suited for this preparation and salmon is particularly delicious. Nobu Matsuhisa is known for his miso-marinated black cod, which he marinates for two to three days. I can't imagine finding fish fresh enough to marinate for that long, so in my recipe I marinate the fish for a few hours before broiling and then finishing, if necessary, in the oven. The marinade is based on the Matsuhisa recipe, but I've reduced the sugar considerably.

Time 3h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

1/4 cup mirin
1/4 cup sake
3 tablespoons white or yellow miso paste
1 tablespoon sugar
2 teaspoons dark sesame oil
4 salmon, trout, Arctic char, mahi mahi or black cod fillets, about 6 ounces each

Steps:

Combine the mirin and sake in the smallest saucepan you have and bring to a boil over high heat. Boil 20 seconds, taking care not to boil off much of the liquid, then turn the heat to low and stir in the miso and the sugar. Whisk over medium heat without letting the mixture boil until the sugar has dissolved. Remove from the heat and whisk in the sesame oil. Allow to cool. Transfer to a wide glass or stainless steel bowl or baking dish.
Pat the fish fillets dry and brush or rub on both sides with the marinade, then place them in the baking dish and turn them over a few times in the marinade remaining in the dish. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate for 2 to 3 hours, or for up to a day.
Light the broiler or prepare a grill. Line a sheet pan with foil and oil the foil. Tap each fillet against the sides of the bowl or dish so excess marinade will slide off. Place skin side up on the baking sheet if broiling.
Place the fish skin side down on the grill, or skin side up under the broiler, about 6 inches from the heat. Broil or grill for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, until the surface browns and blackens in spots. If necessary (this will depend on the thickness of the fillets) finish in a 400-degree oven, for about 5 minutes, until the fish is opaque and can be pulled apart easily with a fork.

Tips:

Choose the freshest salmon possible. This will ensure that your dish has the best flavor and texture.
Use a good quality miso paste. The better the miso paste, the better your glaze will be.
Be careful not to overcook the salmon. Salmon is a delicate fish, so it cooks quickly. Overcooking will make it dry and tough.
Serve the salmon immediately after cooking. This will ensure that it is at its best flavor and texture.
Garnish the salmon with fresh herbs or vegetables. This will add a pop of color and flavor to your dish.

Conclusion:

Miso-glazed salmon is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The miso glaze adds a wonderful flavor to the salmon, and the fish is cooked to perfection. This dish is sure to impress your friends and family.
