| How To Cook: |
|
|
1. First place the sesame seeds with a few drops of oil in a custard cup or other small dish and toast in the microwave oven, stirring often. (This should take about 2 minutes or less.)
|
2. Then, crush the seed by placing in a plastic sandwich bag and striking with a hammer a few times.
|
3. Put the water, ginger root, and salt in a covered casserole and simmer, covered, for several minutes to bring the flavor of the ginger into the water.
|
4. Add the fish and cook, covered, in the microwave oven for 5 minutes. Turn the fish over gently so as to not break it up.
|
5. Cook, covered, in the microwave oven until the fish is done and will flake easily (about 5 minutes more). Put the fish on a warm serving plate.
|
6. In the small dish, mix the sesame seed, remaining oil, soy sauce, pepper, and MSG. Heat but do not boil. Pour over the fish. Sprinkle on the chopped green onion.
|
|
TIP:
|
|
Mince the ginger as fine as possible so there will be no hot bites in the fish. Fish cooked in the microwave oven will remain tender and moist.
