Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 pounds fresh cod *See notes (or thawed, previously frozen cod)
2 tablespoons mild honey
1 1/2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 tablespoon gochujang **See notes
1 tablespoon white miso paste
1 teaspoon soy sauce
2 garlic cloves (peeled and minced or pressed through a garlic press)
1 teaspoon grated ginger
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
Optional: Beech mushrooms (separated from their base, tossed in 1 teaspoon canola or peanut oil and a pinch of salt ***See notes)
hot cooked rice
steamed broccoli
toasted sesame seeds
thinly sliced green onions

Steps:

  • Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and oil it or spray it with non-stick cooking spray. Arrange the cod filets on the baking sheet.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together or use a fork to combine the honey, vinegar, gochujang, miso, soy sauce, garlic, ginger and sesame oil. Separate out about 2 tablespoons of the mixture and brush it over the fish. Let the fish rest in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes but up to an hour to let the fish marinate.
  • Preheat your broiler to HIGH with a rack placed about 8 inches below the element. Scatter the prepared beech mushrooms around the fish filets and slide the pan onto the rack. Broil the fish for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the glaze is bubbly and charred in places. Remove the pan from the oven and turn the oven off of broil and up to 375°F. Brush the remaining glaze over the fish and return the pan to the oven for 5 to 10 minutes, depending on the thickness of your filets, or until they are opaque and flake easily with a fork.
  • Serve over rice and steamed broccoli and garnish with toasted sesame seeds and thinly sliced green onions.

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.

Categories     dinner, easy, main course

Time 3h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

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.

MISO-GLAZED FISH FILLETS

With its rich flavor and velvety texture, black cod is the best choice for this dish, but other firm, white-flesh fish, such as halibut or Arctic char, can be used instead.This recipe is from the new "Martha Stewart's Dinner at Home" cookbook.Photo credit: Kate Sears

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Seafood Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 tablespoons mirin (Japanese sweet rice cooking wine)
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar (unseasoned)
1/3 cup white (shiro) miso
2 tablespoons sugar
Safflower or other neutral-tasting oil, for baking sheets
4 skinless black cod fillets (6 ounces each)

Steps:

  • Combine mirin, vinegar, miso, and sugar in a small saucepan. Whisking constantly, cook over medium heat until sugar has dissolved. Remove from heat; transfer glaze to a small bowl and let cool completely.
  • Heat broiler, with rack 6 inches from heat source. Coat a baking sheet lightly with oil. Arrange fish on sheet, and brush generously with miso glaze. Broil until fillets are browned on top and opaque throughout, 6 to 8 minutes. (If the top of the fish browns before it's cooked through, cover loosely with foil.) Serve warm.

MISO-GLAZED SEA BASS



Miso-Glazed Sea Bass image

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.

Categories     dinner, lunch, quick, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 pounds sea bass, mackerel or cod, skin off, and cut into a dozen 2-ounce slices
1 tablespoon white miso
1 tablespoon red miso
1 tablespoon sake
1 tablespoon mirin
2 teaspoons soy sauce
2 teaspoons grated ginger
1 tablespoon sugar
2 egg yolks
Salt
1 pound tender mustard greens or spinach, stemmed and washed
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
Pickled ginger, for garnish

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.

MISO-GLAZED BLACK COD



Miso-Glazed Black Cod image

This is my take on the oft requested miso-glazed, black cod, made famous by chef Nobu Matsuhisa. In addition to a taste and texture to die for, this is one of the easiest fish recipes of all time. A couple minutes to make the sauce, some brushing, a short wait, and you're broiling. By the way, I don't like to cook both sides. I like the heat to only penetrate from the top down. This makes for a lovely caramelized top, and a super juicy interior. Cooking times will vary, but simply broil the fish until the bones pull out with no effort, and the meat flakes.

Categories     Seafood     Fish

Time 40m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 tablespoons white miso paste
2 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons mirin (Japanese sweet wine)
2 tablespoons sake
1 tablespoon brown sugar
2 (7 ounce) black cod fillets

Steps:

  • Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly grease the aluminum foil.
  • Whisk miso paste, water, mirin, sake, and brown sugar together in a small skillet over medium heat until mixture simmers and thickens slightly, 1 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat and cool completely.
  • Place cod fillets on prepared baking sheet. Brush fillets all over with miso mixture. Rest fillets at room temperature to quickly marinate, 15 to 20.
  • Broil fillets in the preheated oven for 5 minutes. Turn the baking sheet 180 degrees and continue broiling until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 5 minutes more. Remove pin bones.

Tips:

  • Choose the right fish: For this recipe, firm-fleshed fish like salmon, cod, or halibut work best. These fish can withstand the high heat of the oven and won't fall apart.
  • Make sure the fish is fresh: Fresh fish will have a mild, sweet smell and firm, shiny flesh. Avoid fish that smells fishy or has dull, slimy flesh.
  • Don't overcook the fish: Fish is done cooking when it flakes easily with a fork. Overcooked fish will be dry and tough.
  • Use a good quality miso paste: Miso paste is the key ingredient in this glaze, so it's important to use a good quality paste. Look for miso paste that is made from whole soybeans and has a deep, rich flavor.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different flavors: This recipe is a great starting point, but you can feel free to experiment with different flavors. Try adding different herbs, spices, or citrus fruits to the glaze to create your own unique dish.

Conclusion:

Miso honey glazed fish is a delicious and healthy way to enjoy fish. The miso paste and honey create a flavorful glaze that caramelizes in the oven, giving the fish a crispy, golden-brown crust. Serve this dish with roasted vegetables or a simple salad for a complete meal.
