Black cod, also known as sablefish, is a rich, buttery fish that's elevated by a miso glaze. This recipe features the classic Nobu-inspired preparation, made easy in the air fryer. Here you'll find the full recipe, including glaze ingredients and cooking times.
Ingredients
- 2 black cod (sablefish) fillets
- Parchment paper
- 2 tablespoons white miso paste
- 1 tablespoon mirin
- 1 tablespoon sake or dry white wine
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce
Steps
- 01Mix all glaze ingredients until smooth.
- 02Coat the fillets with the glaze on the flesh side (not the skin side).
- 03Place skin-side down on parchment paper in the basket.
- 04Ready for the air fryer.
Black cod is one of the richest, most buttery fish in the ocean. The miso glaze is the Nobu-famous preparation and it's here because black cod without miso is like steak without salt. Possible, but you're missing the point. White miso is mild and sweet. Don't use red miso, which is too strong and overwhelms the fish. The glaze caramelizes into a deeply golden, lacquered crust.
