Easy Summer Fish

This is such a great way to make steak type fishes such as salmon, tuna and halibut which I prefer to grill or oven roast.
I love fish and this dish is from my latest class on preparing fish. Enjoy and remember fish must be from a reputable source such as a fish market or Asian market.

Procedure

1.     Combine the miso, mirin, soy and sugar in a small bowl and mix. Add a little water to make a smooth paste.
