Black Cod With Miso Recipes

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.

Steps:

• Make Nobu-style Saikyo Miso:
• 1.Bring the saké and the mirin to a boil in a medium saucepan over high heat. Boil for 20 seconds to evaporate the alcohol.
• 2. Turn the heat down to low and add the miso paste, mixing with a wooden spoon. When the miso has dissolved completely, turn the heat up to high again and add the sugar, stirring constantly with the wooden spoon to ensure that the bottom of the pan doesn't burn. Remove from heat once the sugar is fully dissolved. Cool to room temperature.
• Yield:
• 3 cups (800 g).
• Make cod:
• 1. Pat fillets thoroughly dry with paper towels. Slather the fish with Nobu-style Saikyo Miso and place in a non-reactive dish or bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Leave to steep in refrigerator for 2 to 3 days.
• 2 Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C, gas 6). Preheat a grill or broiler. Lightly wipe off any excess miso clinging to the fillets but don't rinse it off. Place the fish on the grill, or in a broiler pan, and grill or broil until the surface of the fish turns brown. Then bake for 10 to 15 minutes.
• 3. Arrange the black cod fillets on individual plates and garnish with hajikami. Add a few extra drops of Nobu-style Saikyo Miso to each plate.

• In a medium saucepan combine the sake and mirin and carefully flambe. When the flames die out, add the water and 1/2 cup sugar. Stir until the sugar dissolves. Stir in the miso and, using an immersion blender, dissolve the miso into the liquid. Transfer the mixture to a double boiler and cook until caramel in color and all of the lumps are gone, abut 45 minutes. Cool.
• Turn the heat down to low and add the miso paste, mixing with a wooden spoon. When the miso has dissolved completely, turn the heat up to high again and add 1 tablespoon of sugar, stirring constantly with the wooden spoon to ensure that the bottom of the pan doesn't burn. Remove from heat once the sugar is fully dissolved. Cool to room temperature.

Steps:

• Over a double boiler, combine miso, sugar, sake, and mirin and whisk until sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and let cool. Refrigerate for a few hours so that marinade is cold and add black cod fillets or fillet pieces. Marinate for 24 to 48 hours in refrigerator.
• Remove from marinade and scrape off most of marinade that is coating the fish. Preheat oven to broil (oven should be very hot and heat should be coming from the top down). Place fish on a greased foil-lined baking sheet. Place baking sheet approximately 6 inches away from top heating element. Broil 7 to 10 minutes, until browned. Depending on the thickness of the fish, fish should flake away; otherwise, bake an additional few minutes.

Steps:

• Cod:
• Slice cod 3/4" thick, leaving skin on and bones in (the bones will slip right out when fish is cooked). Season very lightly with salt and place on a paper towel.lined baking sheet. Cover with another paper towel and chill 1 hour (this will draw out some moisture and any fishy flavors).
• Combine miso and mirin in a small bowl. Wet 2 paper towels (you can also use cheesecloth) with sake and squeeze out any excess. Spread half of miso mixture in a 13x9" baking dish in a thin, even layer. Cover with a sake-moistened paper towel. Arrange cod in a single layer on top. Cover with the other sakemoistened towel. Spread remaining miso mixture over towel. Cover; chill 3 days.
• Preheat broiler. Transfer cod to a rimmed baking sheet; discard miso mixture and paper towels. Broil cod until golden brown around the edges and cooked through, about 4 minutes. Let cool slightly, then pull out bones.
• Chilled cucumbers and assembly:
• Soak kombu in 2 cups cold water in a small saucepan at room temperature 2 hours, or chill up to 12 hours.
• Bring to a bare simmer over medium heat. Discard kombu and bring liquid to a boil. Add katsuobushi; simmer 1 minute (reduce heat if needed). Strain through a paper towel or cheesecloth-lined sieve into a small bowl; discard solids. Let dashi cool.
• Bring vinegar, sugar, and 2 tablespoons water to a boil in a clean small saucepan. Remove from heat and stir to dissolve sugar. Let sweet vinegar cool.
• Slice cucumbers in half lengthwise. If using Japanese cucumbers, scrape out seeds with a small spoon. Slice cucumbers into very thin half moons. Toss in a small bowl with a few pinches of salt. Let sit until salt begins to draw out water from cucumbers, about 5 minutes. Massage cucumbers, gently at first to keep them from breaking, then more vigorously as they start to expel water, until swimming in water. Rinse in several changes of water; squeeze out excess liquid. Place cucumbers in a clean small bowl and chill until cold, about 1 hour.
• After cucumbers have chilled 30 minutes, place ginger and 1 cup water in a small bowl; soak 30 minutes to soften its pungency. Drain.
• Add sweet vinegar and 3/4 cup dashi to cucumbers (reserve remaining dashi for another use). Season with salt. Divide cod among shallow bowls. Top with cucumbers and ginger. Pour any cucumber liquid over.
• Do Ahead
• Dashi and sweet vinegar can be made 1 day ahead; cover and chill separately. Chilled cucumbers can be made 1 day ahead; keep chilled.

Steps:

• In a saucepan, whisk together miso, sugar, mirin, and sake. Cook until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a shallow baking dish. Add fish, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 3 days.
• Preheat broiler to high. Remove fish from marinade, and place on a baking sheet, skin-side down. Broil until caramelized, about 3 minutes. Using a flat spatula, gently turn fish, and broil until just opaque in center, about 3 minutes more. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat broiler; set rack 3 to 4 inches from heat source. Combine first three ingredients in a small saucepan and, over low heat, bring almost to a boil, stirring occasionally just until blended; mixture will be fairly thin. Turn off heat.
• Put fillets in an ovenproof baking dish or skillet, preferably nonstick, and spoon half the sauce on top. Broil until sauce bubbles and begins to brown, then spoon remaining amount over fish. Continue to broil, adjusting heat or rack position if sauce or fish is browning too quickly, until fish is just cooked through. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Combine 1/2 the ginger, 1/2 the garlic, coconut aminos, vinegar, avocado oil, miso, and sesame oil in a blender and process until sauce is smooth.
• Place cod in a baking dish and pour sauce on top. Allow to marinate 15 to 30 minutes.
• Smash remaining garlic and place on top of fish in the baking dish. Add the remaining sliced ginger and dab ghee on top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 10 minutes. Turn on broiler and broil to desired caramelization and doneness, 3 to 5 minutes more.

Steps:

• Bring the sake and mirin to a boil in a medium saucepan over a high heat.
• Boil for 20 seconds to evaporate the alcohol.
• Turn the heat down to low and add the miso paste, mixing with a wooden spoon.
• When the miso has dissolved turn the heat up to high again and add the sugar, stirring constantly to make sure it doesn't burn.
• Once the sugar is dissolved remove from the heat and cool to room temperature.
• Meanwhile, pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels.
• When the miso mixture has cooled a bit, cover the fish with the mixture and place in a non-reactive dish or bowl.
• Cover tightly with plastic wrap and leave to steep for 2-3 days.
• On the day of the dinner, preheat the oven to 200C as well as a grill.
• Grill the fish until its surface turns brown then bake for 10-15 minutes.
• Arrange the fillets on individual plates and garnish with the ginger.
