Ingredients
- 1 1/2 lb wild black cod
- to taste salt
Marinade
- 1/4 cup sake
- 1/4 cup mirin
- 0.33 cup white miso paste
- 3 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 1/2 tsp ground ginger
Instructions
- 1Combine the sake and mirin in a saucepan and heat over medium‑high until boiling.
- 2Add the sugar and white miso paste, whisk until smooth, and bring to a gentle simmer for 1 minute.
- 3Remove the pan from heat, whisk in the sesame oil and ground ginger, and allow the mixture to cool completely.
- 4Place the cut cod portions in a gallon‑size resealable bag and pour the cooled marinade over the fish.
- 5Massage the bag to evenly coat the fish, flatten it into a single layer, and refrigerate for at least 24 hours (overnight) to marinate.
- 6Preheat the oven broiler and set a drip grate on a sheet pan lined with aluminum foil.
- 7Remove the cod from the bag, gently pat off excess marinade with paper towels, and arrange the pieces on the foiled grate, leaving space between each portion.
- 8Broil the fish about 8 inches from the heating element for 12–15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F and the glaze is caramelized and glossy.
- 9Transfer the cod to a serving platter, sprinkle lightly with salt to taste, and serve immediately.
