- Nobu did not invent the recipe of grilled black cod with miso, but made it hugely popular in the US. Black cod is not in the cod family!
- this experiment is done with regular east coast cod, a thinner part of the fillet near belly. the fillet is marinated in sea salt first for a couple of hours, then wrapped in the mixture of white miso and mirin and marinated for 2 days. since no slow grilling tool is available, the fish is broiled under high heat for 15 minutes till brown.the result is satisfactory, subtle salty-sweet flavor and firm-flaky texture
