This simple fish entrée explodes with umami—the savory element also known as “the fifth taste.” A sauce spiked with miso, soy sauce, sake, dashi and ginger and a side that includes shiitake mushrooms seasoned with soy sauce add several layers of umami to this dish. Choi sum is a leafy green vegetable that’s a smaller, more delicate version of bok choy. You can substitute baby bok choy if choi sum is not available.

1/2 cup Teriyaki Sauce (recipe follows)
4 skinless, boneless 6-oz. butterfish fillets
Aka Miso Dashi Nage (recipe follows)
1 oz. unsalted butter
8 shiitake mushrooms, stemmed and halved
4 pieces choi sum or baby bok choy
1 tsp. grated fresh ginger
Soy sauce, salt and black pepper, to taste
Steps
Prepare Teriyaki Sauce and pour 1/2 cup into heavy-duty plastic bag with zip top. Add butterfish fillets; seal bag and marinate in the refrigerator for 6 to 8 hr.
