My top 3 favorite ways to give gift cards at the holidays
The last one is my all-time favorite & wonderful as a hostess gift 🫶🏼
Idk about you but the logistics of giving somebody a plastic ornament ball with a bunch of glitter and fake snow with a gift card inside sounds like a logistical nightmare 😅

My take on Miso Black Cod recipe inspired by Nobu:

✨Do this step 3 days before you plan to eat this meal✨
For the cod:
-1/2 pound (properly feeds 3 adults or 2 adults and 2 little kids)
-1/4 cup sake
-1/4 cup mirin
-1/3 cup white miso paste
-1/4 cup pure cane sugar (use granulated if you’ve got that)
Cod directions:
1. Add sake and mirin into a small pot and cook the alcohol off. Bring to a boil, let that boil for 15-20 seconds.
2. Bring heat down to low & whisk in the white miso paste and sugar. Once dissolved, take the pot off the heat and let it come to room temperature.
3. Rinse your black cod in sake and cut into filets.
4. Add marinade to the bottom of a bowl or a dish and add the cod, flesh-side down before covering the fish in the marinade.
5. Seal, place in the fridge for 48-72 hours.
6. After marinating, take dish out of the fridge 30 mins before cooking, heat oven to broil/425°.
Bake until cod reaches an internal temp of 145° (8-10 mins) and you start to see those crispy edges.

For the mushroom medley:
-2 tablespoons olive oil
-1 shallot, minced
-3 cloves garlic, minced
-1/2 cup mushrooms
-1/4 cup Brussels sprouts, sliced
-1/4 cup sake
-few drops of toasted sesame oil (a little goes a long way)
-1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
-1/4 cup heavy cream
-freshly shredded parm (optional)
Directions:
1. Dice and mince aromatics and veggies.
2. Add olive oil to the pan followed by minced shallots, cook for 2 mins before adding garlic (cook 1 min).
3. Add Brussels sprouts and mushrooms & cook down before deglazing with sake.
4. Cook alcohol off & add sesame oil & turn heat down before adding heavy cream.
5. Add a tbsp white wine vinegar at the end & mix just before plating.

Rice:
1 cup basmati rice
1.5 cups chicken stock
1/2 tablespoon butter
Cook rice according to package but I cooked mine in chicken stock instead of water and added a small k**b of butter at the end.
