I’m constantly on the hunt for a new interpretation of sweet and savory flavors when cooking with new ingredients. This Pacific cod recipe satiates all of those desires and makes a dish that feels sophisticated and worthy, yet is relatively simple to make. It’s a beautiful dish to have for something a little special even as an easy weeknight dinner, or incredibly easy to scale up when entertaining for a crowd.
Note: For the saffron butter, if saffron is unavailable to you, it’s okay to replace it with ground turmeric. This will give the butter that luscious golden tone, as well as a bit of complexity in flavor.
