Episode 3 - Main Course
Miso Black Cod with Borage Blossom, Popcorn Shoots, Shiso Leaf Green, Mirin, Sake, Sugar, and Shiro Miso
Chef Dominic DeAngelis
Borage Blossom
Borage Blossoms offer a delicate cucumber-like freshness and subtle citrus notes that complement the rich, savory depth of miso black cod. Their soft floral character and striking blue and lavender tones add contrast to the dish, balancing umami-driven flavors with a clean, refreshing finish. Both visually expressive and gently aromatic, they provide a refined accent to composed seafood presentations. Find more information about Borage Blossom here.
Popcorn Shoots
With their crisp texture and naturally sweet corn flavor, Popcorn Shoots create a fresh counterpoint to the rich umami of miso black cod. Bright yellow leaves and pale stems add visual contrast to the plate, while their clean sweetness enhances the balance of mirin, sake, and shiro miso. Their delicate structure and vivid color add energy and dimension to the final plate. Find more information about Popcorn Shoots here.
