Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a small bowl, mash the black garlic cloves into a paste using a fork. This is best done by pressing them against the side of the bowl.

Add the white miso paste, mirin, sake, soy sauce, honey, gochugaru, grated ginger, and sesame oil to the bowl with the black garlic paste. Whisk vigorously until well combined and the mixture is smooth.

Pat the sablefish fillets dry with paper towels. Place them on the prepared baking sheet.
~2 min - 5
Generously brush the black garlic and miso glaze over the top and sides of each sablefish fillet. Ensure an even coating.

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. The glaze should be slightly caramelized.
