Steamed Fish With Ginger and Scallions

I used the traditional bamboo steamer to make this recipe. It came out quite tender and flavorful. My husband was not overly fond of the garnishes, and I personally could have got by with just the regular sauce myself. There was a lot of leftover sauce, saved it for later. Would definitely make again. Reviewed for ZWT 2008

As Susie, I used a bamboo steamer to steam the fish. I also agree with Susie that this is a very easy and fast recipe. And again I have to agree with Susie that there was a lot of leftover sauce, so you may either want to make less of it or do with the leftover sauce what I did: put it into your fridge and use it for a stir-fry. Having read Hey Jude's review before making it, I also used less soy sauce and I'm glad I did, as it still was quite salty with less sauce. Another possibility would have been to use salt-reduced soy sauce. Thanks for posting this quick dish, Kate.

I cooked the fish in a bamboo steamer. I liked how easy to prepare this recipe was. I did find that I had lots of leftover sauce and will reduce the amounts there next time. The garnish suggestions are perfect. Thank you Kate for sharing your recipe!

This was a good dish but I made a few changes to get to that goodness. I halved the recipe as it was just my husband and myself, and used sea bass. Step 3 mentions oil, salt and pepper but I didn't see those ingredients listed so I winged it and added a dash of white pepper, a very small spot of sesame oil and NO salt, due to the amount of soy sauce listed in the sauce ingredients. The sauce....a CUP of soy sauce? I halved the recipe so that meant a half cup of soy....I used a bit less than a quarter cup and I still felt it was too much....I added some more chicken stock to cut the saltiness. When steaming the fish in the foil packets I just felt that things were too dry in there so I added a very small dash of rice wine and that was perfect, the fish came out moist and flavorful. The garnishes at the end are really nice and kind of saved the whole thing! Thanks Kate...We did enjoy the recipe with the changes. I'm sorry to give just three stars but I had to make too many changes to get it to work for us.
