Steamed Salmon With Black Beans

Recipe Ingredients

1 lb	454g / 16oz	Salmon fillets or steaks
3 teaspoons	15ml	Dry sherry
1 teaspoon	5ml	Grated - peeled fresh ginger
1/4 teaspoon	1.3ml	Salt
1		Garlic clove - pureed
2 tablespoons	30ml	Thinly sliced scallions
1 tablespoon	15ml	Fermented black beans - coarsely chopped
1 teaspoon	5ml	Sesame seed oil
		Cilantro or parsley sprigs - for garnish

Recipe Instructions

Place the fish in a heat-proof dish at least 1" deep. (If you are using a fillet, place it skin side down.) Stir together the Sherry, ginger, salt and garlic in a small bowl.

Pour this mixture onto the fish and rub generously on both sides. Let stand at least 15 minutes.

Spread the scallions and beans evenly on top of the dish. Drizzle with sesame seed oil.

Bring the water in the steamer to a vigorous boil. Place the dish on the steamer tray and cover. Steam about 10 minutes, checking for doneness after about 8 minutes.

The fish will look opaque and feel springy to the touch. It is better to undercook slightly than to overcook; the heat in the fish will finish the cooking. Serve immediately
