Season Cod
Pat the black cod fillets dry with a paper towel and lightly season with salt.
Marinate Fillets

For best results, marinate the fish overnight to deeply infuse the flavors.

Pour the mixture over the sliced radishes and let them pickle for at least 30 minutes.
Chill
Store in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
Use a mandoline slicer for uniformly thin radish slices.
