• 2 pieces Black cod fillets
• 2 tablespoons White miso paste
• 1 tablespoon Mirin (sweet rice wine)

• 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, grated
• 1 cup Daikon radish
• 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar

1. 1

   In a small bowl, whisk together miso, mirin, soy sauce, honey, and grated ginger to form the glaze.

   Preheat the broiler on high; place the glazed cod on a foil-lined baking sheet and broil for 8‑10 minutes, until the surface is caramelized and the fish flakes easily.
