For best results, use high-quality black cod. Its rich, buttery flavor is the perfect complement to the umami-packed miso glaze. Don't overcook the fish! The goal is a perfectly caramelized top and a moist, succulent interior. Use a fork to gently test for doneness. If you prefer a sweeter glaze, you can add an extra teaspoon of brown sugar. Experiment with garnishes! A sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds, thinly sliced scallions, or a drizzle of chili oil can add an extra layer of flavor and visual appeal.
