This miso marinated black cod is an exceptional piece of fish, pre-marinated in white miso for a rich, savoury flavour and beautifully caramelised finish. Cooked close to the grill, the miso glaze develops a gorgeous golden surface, with slightly charred edges adding extra depth. Meanwhile, the black cod remains tender and moist, breaking apart into perfect pearlescent flakes. It’s an impressive yet wonderfully simple way to enjoy this prized fish at home.
Served with quick-pickled mooli, this black cod brings together rich umami flavours and a fresh, tangy contrast. The combination of buttery fish, sweet caramelisation and crisp pickled mooli makes every bite deliciously balanced. Ideal for an elegant dinner or Japanese-inspired meal, this miso marinated black cod is a standout dish for seafood lovers looking for restaurant-quality flavour at home.
