Description
Black Cod Recipes have completely transformed the way I think about cooking seafood at home. The first time I tried black cod—also known as sablefish or butterfish—it wasn’t in a fancy restaurant, but in my own kitchen after stumbling across a miso-marinated recipe late one night. I wasn’t expecting magic. But as the fillet roasted in the oven, filling the room with the warm scent of miso and caramelizing fish oil, I knew something special was happening. One bite of that silky, buttery flesh, and I was hooked.
Ingredients

-
- 3 tbsp sake

-
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, whisk together miso, mirin, sake, sugar, and soy sauce. Heat over low heat until combined, then let cool.
- Coat the fish fillets with the marinade and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results.
- Preheat your oven to 400°F. Place the fillets on a lined baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes.
