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

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 best cod: Look for cod that is firm and white, with no signs of discoloration. Fresh cod should have a mild, slightly salty smell.
  • Marinate the cod: Marinating the cod in a mixture of miso, sake, mirin, and soy sauce helps to tenderize and flavor the fish. Be sure to marinate the cod for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
  • Cook the cod gently: Cod is a delicate fish, so it's important to cook it gently. Pan-frying or baking the cod on low heat will help to prevent the fish from overcooking and becoming dry.
  • Serve the cod with a flavorful sauce: A simple balsamic vinegar and grapefruit sauce is the perfect complement to the miso-marinated cod. The sauce is tangy, sweet, and slightly bitter, and it helps to brighten up the flavor of the fish.

Conclusion:

Miso-marinated cod with balsamic vinegar and grapefruit is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The cod is tender and flavorful, and the sauce is tangy, sweet, and slightly bitter. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
