Made with 1 lb, 1-2 inches thick Opah. Made 2/3 of miso mix. Applied for 1hr or so at rm temp. Broiler was at 3 position down. 3 min needed to get it brown on top, then another 5 min in oven at 400 degrees to get the internal temp at 125-130. Nice and pink in middle. Absolutely delicious comparable to Hayes Street Grill. 

This is a great glaze. I have also used it on salmon and cod steaks. Both delicious.

Anything that's remotely comparable to something from Hayes Street Grill means it's worth trying.

Elegant, delicious, dead simple. A wonderful hands-off accompaniment to risotto, to which you can devote your leftover attention. I doubled the recipe and roasted my 1.5 lb fillet (a few inches thick in both directions) for just under 20 minutes at 400º F. Bliss!

This marinade is amazing. We had a lovely cut of halibut from the belly, very thick steaks. That said, I adjusted the cook method out of a long held fear of broiling fish…something I’ve never managed to master. I cooked the steaks at 275F until flaky, basting with the marinade as it cooked. Didn’t need to broil, the marinade nicely coated the fish and browned as it cooked. The fish was absolutely superb…an easy weeknight dinner, and easy clean up!

Used cod, added 1 tsp sugar to marinade. Broiled 7 min to temp 130F. Served with rice and roasted broccoli
