Wasabi Broiled Black Cod Recipes

Steps:

• To prepare the marinade: Combine honey, grape seed oil, soy sauce, and white wine vinegar. Cover the fish with the marinade, cover and refrigerate for 24 hours. Remove the fish and place in a pan. Caramelize the fish under the broiler and finish in a preheated 400 degree F oven until the fish reaches medium. Reserve some of the marinade to use for sauce.
• To prepare the spinach: Heat the butter in a hot saute pan. When the butter begins to brown, add the garlic. Add the spinach. Cook until tender. Season with nutmeg, salt, and pepper, to taste. Set aside.
• Heat reserve marinade to boiling point, reduce heat and simmer for two to three minutes.
• To assemble the plate: In the center of each of 6 large bowls divide the spinach. Place a portion of fish on top and pour approximately 2 tablespoons of reserved marinade, over the top of each fish.

Steps:

• Pat the fillets thoroughly dry with paper towels. Slather the fish with Nobu-style miso and place in a non-reactive dish or bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Leave to steep in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 days.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. 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.
• Arrange the black cod fillets on individual plates and garnish with hajikami. Add a few extra drops of Nobu-style 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:

• Whisk together the hoisin sauce, ketchup, soy sauce, vinegar, sesame oil, garlic and ginger in a large bowl. Add the cod and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate 1 hour.
• Remove the fish from the refrigerator. Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat the broiler. Line a baking sheet with foil. Remove the fish from the marinade, reserving the marinade, and arrange on the pan (if the fillets are skin-on, arrange them skin-side down).
• Broil the fish 4 minutes. Brush with the reserved marinade, making sure to coat the top and sides. Rotate the pan 180 degrees and broil until the fish is charred in spots and flakes easily with a fork, 4 to 5 more minutes.
• Arrange the fillets on a platter. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and sliced scallions.

Steps:

• In a medium pot, bring sake to a boil and cook for 5 minutes.
• Add black cod, ginger slices, burdock root and mountain potato. Then add regular soy and sugar and cook with a lid right over the fillet, not over the pot. This lid must be slightly smaller than the rim of the pot so that steam can evaporate through the gap.
• When the vegetables and black cod are cooked through, remove them from the pot and boil the sauce until thickened slightly and reduced.
• Add mirin for glazing. Then add tamari soy.
• Place the fillet on a plate, garnish it with cooked vegetables. Pour the sauce over them.
• Garnish with white scallion, shredded ginger and kinome on top.
