RECIPE INSTRUCTION:
- To make the Miso glaze, combine the miso paste, soy sauce, mirin, garlic powder, olive oil (1tbsp), black pepper, lemon zest, and cayenne pepper in a bowl and mix.
- To make the GoChuJang glaze, combine 1 tbsp of the Miso glaze, GoChuJang, and sugar in a bowl and mix.
- Preheat your oven to BROIL setting. Make sure to move your oven shelf high so your frying pan will be right under the oven fire.
- Preheat your non-stick frying pan on high heat. It is critical that your frying pan is heated hot to sear the skin of the fish. Test it buy sprinkling some water on the pan (dip your fingers in water and sprinkle over the pan). If the water bubbles are dancing/moving around and sizzling, your frying pan is ready. If the bubbles are just hanging and not sizzling, wait a minute or two, and try sprinkling the water again.
- Pat dry your fish with paper towel on both sides, the flesh and skin.
- Add the olive oil (2 tbsp) to your heated frying pan.
- Place the fish with the skin down. Let it sear for 60 - 90 seconds.
- Turn off the stove heat. Tilt your frying pan to one side, add butter and fresh thyme.
- Using a spoon, coat the flesh of the fish with the herb infused butter.
- Coat the glaze on the flesh of the skin. Remember, the glaze is a condiment, so don't put too much glaze on it.
- Place the frying pan right under the oven fire. Use a frying pan with a non-plastic handle. OR you can try to wrap the plastic handle with aluminum foil (put 2-3 layers) to protect it from heat.
- Turn your oven light on, and keep a close eye on the fish. Depending on how strong your oven fire is, it can take 60 seconds for the glaze to sizzle. OR it can take 3-4 minutes in an oven with less fire power. The key is to have the glaze sizzle into the flesh of the fish. We want to see brown spots on the glaze.
- Once the glaze has sizzled, remove to a serving plate asap. If you keep the fish in the frying pan, it will end up being over cooked. Let the fish start to cool down on the plate for 2 minutes or so, and serve immediately.
TIP: You can store the glaze in the freezer (double bag it in plastic sandwich bag first and freezer bag). Best to consume within a month.
Below are some Korean grocery stores and Amazon links.

- If you live in San Francisco
- In the bay area, unlike the mom-and-pop Korean markets in San Francisco, the markets below are GIANT Korean supermarkets.
Oakland: KP Asian Market
Daly City: Kukjae Supermarket
Sunnyvale: Hangook Supermarket
San Jose: H Mart
One of my favorite $20 pinot noir bottles.
No, you don't have to only drink wine white with fish entrees. A light and dry red actually pairs nicely with fish, especially with spicy GoChuJang glaze. For the Miso glaze, a dry bubbles/brut would be a good compliment.

If you are a San Francisco local, Blackwell's Wine & Spirits (located in the outer Richmond) is worth a visit. Everyone that works here are so helpful, friendly, and knowledgable. Most importantly, they just have great stuff, without all the FUSSY attitude that one might experience at the high end shops. Yes, support your local business!
BTS (Korean pop group, totally different from PSY, is exploding with popularity globally.) Yes, BTS's music is definitely "younger" than PSY. No, I usually don't listen to recent K-pop. Yes, I'm still into my K-pop from the 90s...:-) BUT BTS is worth a listen. Click here to view BTS and Steve Aoki remix music video.
As a Korean-American, I'm proud to see their success reach global presence!
