Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
You're in Hong Kong, dining at a proper Cantonese restaurant, its interior decorated in ornate South-East Asian finery, bustling with patrons, the smell of fine food in the air.
Your waiter brings your order of a Steamed Coral Trout. It is a beautiful fish - a tiny head, fine fins, concaved fan-shaped tail, its skin orange tinged with iridescent blue spots. It is of an unrivalled freshness, its natural colouring still vibrant.
The dish is garnished with fresh scallions and coriander, cut in a way so they curl and create a beautiful visual loft on top of the fish. There are finely cut red chillis, a counterpoint of colour.
Drenched over the fish, a light, carefully crafted top-shelf soy sauce, in keeping with the cultivated minimalism of Cantonese cuisine, all about exemplifying fresh, quality ingredients. It is lightly salted and brimming with complex savoury flavours with elements of bouillon, kelp, caramel, Umami. The flesh of the Coral Trout is extremely delicate, pearly white. There is just enough firmness to remind you what it is, then it melts in your mouth with fresh flavours of the sea.
The experience is one of a kind. The freshest ingredients, put together in an uncomplicated, complementary way. A few of the best things, dialled in right, packing an amazing punch.
Now, you can try it yourself, in the comfort of your kitchen. Take your time, do it slow, make it beautiful, enjoy the process... After that, you can enjoy probably the best steamed fish recipe ever!
Enjoy!

Wow thanks for the great feedback and glad you enjoyed it! MSG is a flavour enhancer, not a spice. If you are happy with your dish without the MSG, then you do not need it 😀. But if you still want to try the dish with MSG, you can ask your Asian grocer for some (ask for "MonoSodium Glutamate" or "Chicken stock powder" (which contains MSG)).
Thanks.

Hi, use Light soy sauce. And if you can, choose the best quality light soy sauce you can find because they vary in level of saltiness. For our recipe, we used Lee Kum Kee's Premium light soy sauce.
Hi, recently i steam coral trout but the flesh turns out mushy. May I know whats the cause? Is it because i freeze the fish too long or the fish itself is not fresh?

Oops... its probably because the fish is not fresh. The freshest fish (live, cleaned and immediately cooked) will have very nice "bouncy" flesh when you eat it... The longer the time between slaughter and eating (e.g. 1-3 days if the fish is displayed on the shelf in the supermarket, or a few weeks if the fish is frozen (but you want to try and ensure that the fish is frozen immediately after being caught and slaughtered)), its freshness will drop and its flesh will become less "bouncy" and, in the extreme, "mushy" (the Cantonese describe this mushiness as the fish being "mui"). So try and get the freshest fish possible from your wet market. The fish stall with many older aunties trying to get a good deal probably also has the freshest fish :)
I was looking for recipe to steam a red grouper, so came across your video. I was much attracted by the music. May I know what the name and artist of the music are?

Thanks! The name of the song is Exhale... it is a 5min track that can be found in KZread Studio's audio editor free music selection... Search for "Exhale" and you should find it. Hope this helps!

@@fukienchaw9483 Thanks! I will try looking for it. By the way, I will be using some of your techniques to make the steamed red grouper for tomorrow dinner. Blessings.
May i know what is the purpose of the oil. I see that you pour quite a bit of oil. If I reduce the oil, will it still taste nice?

Pouring the smoking hot oil over the raw spring onions infuses the dish with a tasty flavour of fresh spring onions... Of course, do feel free to use less oil if you wish!

lee kum lee soy is one of the worse brands to use regardless of their 'grade'. explore other brands and you wont have to use msg.
