FAQs
Can I make Ginger Soy Glazed Cod Recipe ahead of time?
Yes – you can prepare the glaze and marinate the fish up to 2 hours ahead; keep refrigerated.
What’s the best substitute for honey?
Agave nectar or maple syrup work well, though the flavor will shift slightly.
How do I store leftovers?
Place the cod and glaze in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 2 days or freeze for a month.
Why did my cod turn out dry?
Over‑cooking is the main cause; cod should reach 145°F and flake easily. Keep an eye on the timer and use a thermometer.
