SALAD GREENS

A word here about salad greens. With the latest health scare (seems there’s one every day) I switched over to greenhouse grown salad greens, finding them locally from Gotham Greens. I’m willing to pay extra for freshness and safety. I also made up my own oranganic food washing liquid and wash everything.

Cantonese Steamed Fish

Cantonese Steamed Fish | Bijouxs Little Jewels

My all-time favorite way to steam fish, filled with flavor and simple to prepare-Cantonese Steamed Fish Recipe No. 653 in the Membership Collection.

STEAMED FISH

I know steaming fish sounds bland and boring, however this Cantonese take on steamed fish is anything but boring. Fresh ginger, scallions and cilantro all bathed in a light soy-sauce based sauce. The fish is delicate and tender, everything is kept light and fresh.

It’s easy to steam fish, even if you don’t have a steamers. You can simply use a large pot or deep skillet with a lid, I use my wok. You can either use a steaming rack or small can in 1-2 inches of water. Easy! You now have a steaming setup.

CANTONESE CUISINE

I have long-loved Cantonese style food. In LA we had stellar Asian restaurants from the high-end to the simple classic diner-style eateries. Mostly I ate at local restaurants in Alhambra, near my home, where there are many different Asian cuisines converging together.

This simple recipe is a favorite both at home and out to eat- No. 643 Cantonese Steamed Fish Enjoy!
