Instructions

Miso Glazed Cod

  • Preheat broiler
  • Rinse fish fillets and pat dry with paper towels. 
  • Mix the miso, mirin, sake, sesame oil, red pepper flakes and brown sugar together. 
  • Brush about 1 tablespoon miso glaze on each fish fillet. Allow to marinate for at least 30 minutes but no longer than 1 hour.
  • Place fish under broiler for 3 to 4 minutes, or until top until the glaze has caramelized. 
  • Remove fish from oven and brush with remaining glaze. Lower oven to 350 degrees. 
  • Cook an additional 5 to 6 minutes until fish is fully cooked.   Fish should be flaky but not dry

Stir Fry Noodles

  • cook Hemisfares Somen noodles for 2 minutes.  Drain and rinse in cold water till cool.  Set aside until needed.  
    When it comes time to mix the noodles into the stirfry vegetables, run cool water over the noodles to loosen.
  • in a hot saute pan or wok over medium-high heat add 1 tablespoon sesame oil and 1 teaspoon vegetable oil. 
  • add chopped garlic, ginger and red pepper flakes allow to saute 1 minute
  • add in all vegetables and continue to stir-fry for 2-3 minutes or until vegetables are cooked to desired doneness.
  • add noodles and soy sauce and toss till mixed together.  Add additional soy sauce if desired.
  • Place cod on a plate with a side of the noodles and vegetables.  Try to arrange veggies on top of the noodles for appearance.  Garnish cod with reserved scallions and serve.
