Ingredients
- •4 cod fillets (6–8 oz each, 1–1.5 inches thick)
- •1 cup white miso paste
- •½ cup mirin
- •¼ cup sake
- •¼ cup sugar
- •2 tbsp rice vinegar
- •1 tbsp sesame oil
- •2 green onions, sliced
- •1 tbsp sesame seeds
- •Steamed vegetables for serving
- •Rice for serving
Instructions
Whisk white miso, mirin, sake, sugar, rice vinegar, and sesame oil until smooth. Reserve 1/4 cup for sauce.
Coat cod fillets with marinade and refrigerate 24–48 h.
Preheat sous vide to 132°F (56°C).
Remove fillets from marinade and scrape off excess, leaving thin coating.
Seal in bags and cook 45 min.
Warm reserved marinade gently, thinning with water for drizzling consistency.
Remove fish from bags and place on foil-lined baking sheet.
Broil 6 inches from heat for 2–3 min until golden and caramelized.
Transfer to plates and drizzle with warmed miso sauce.
Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds.
Serve with steamed vegetables and rice.
Notes
- •This temperature gives fully opaque fish with traditional texture
- •Still very moist compared to conventional cooking
- •Easier to handle and plate than delicate 120°F version
