Steps:
- 1. Rinse the fish in cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Season the fish inside and out with salt and pepper. Place the fish on a heatproof plate that is both large enough to accommodate it (a glass pie plate works well) and will also fit inside your steamer, bending the fish slightly if it is too long. Stuff half of the ginger inside the cavity of the fish and spread the remaining ginger on top of the fish.
- 2. Pour water into a wok or stockpot and set a steamer in the wok or on the rim of the stockpot. Make sure the water does not touch the bottom of the steamer. Bring the water to a boil over high heat.
- 3. Place the plate holding the fish in the steamer, cover, and steam for about 8 minutes, until the fish flakes easily when tested with the tip of a knife.
- 4. While the fish is steaming, in a small bowl, stir together the soy sauce, wine, and 1 tablespoon of water. Set aside.
- 5. When the fish is ready, carefully remove the plate from the steamer and pour off any accumulated liquid. Lay the scallion and cilantro along the top of the fish. In a small sauté pan, heat the oil over high heat until it is hot but not smoking. Remove the oil from the heat and pour it directly over the scallion and cilantro to "cook" them. Drizzle the soy mixture over the fish and serve immediately.
CHINESE-STYLE STEAMED FISH
This is a basic and common Chinese recipe for steamed fish. My father taught me how to make this; it is easy to prepare, hard to mess up, and very versatile. Serve over white rice, using some of the sauce mixture from the steaming bowl.

Steps:
- Arrange 1/2 of the green onions on the bottom of the steaming bowl (it is important to steam in a container in order to retain the steam and juices around the fish). Place 1/2 of the mushrooms and Napa cabbage sections on top of the onions. Place fish on top of the vegetables. Sprinkle ginger, garlic, and red pepper flakes over fish. Top with the remaining green onions, mushrooms, and napa cabbage. Drizzle soy sauce and water over everything.
- Place steam bowl in a steamer over 1 inch of boiling water, and cover. Steam for 15 to 20 minutes, or until fish flakes easily. Garnish with cilantro, if desired.

CHINESE-STYLE STEAMED WHOLE FISH WITH GINGER AND SCALLIONS
Source: Alana Kysar's Aloha Kitchen A few notes: If you serve this with rice, get that going first. I've been making Perfect Instant Pot Brown Rice; just the rice part, not the dressing. You need a wide pot or pan with a lid for this recipe. The wide shape of the wok is nice because the cooling rack can rest higher up in the pan, allowing water to simmer beneath it without hitting the fish. A whole fish fits nicely inside it, too. Depending on the size of your fish, you will need to adjust the timing. I've been using Branzino, and each Branzino has weighed about 1.25-1.5 lbs. For this size fish, 9 to 1o minutes steaming is about right. For a 2-lb fish, cook for about 16-20 minutes. Alana calls for Moi or other mild, white-fleshed fish.

Steps:
- In a small bowl, whisk together the sesame oil, soy sauce, sugar, and chili, if using. Set aside.
- Using a paring knife or chef's knife, cut three or four 1-inch slits on each side of the fish through the skin to the bone. Pat the fish dry with paper towels. Season generously all over, inside and out, with salt and pepper to taste. Insert 1 piece of scallion and 1 coin of ginger in each slit. Stuff the fish with half of the remaining scallions and ginger. Stuff some cilantro into the cavity of the fish, too.
- . Lay the remaining cilantro, scallions and ginger on top of a steamer basket - I use a cooling rack. Place the fish on the bed of aromatics.
- . In a large wide pot, such as a wok with a lid, bring 2 inches of water to a boil over high heat. Carefully set the steamer basket inside. Pour the sake over the fish. Cover the pan. Reduce heat to medium or low, keeping the water at a simmer. Steam for 9-10 minutes (see notes above), until the flesh is opaque and easily flakes. Transfer the fish to a platter. Discard the aromatics.
- Heat the oil in a small sauce pan over high heat until it starts to fizzle. Pour the oil over the fish. Return pan to burner and pour in the soy sauce mixture. Heat the sauce until it bubbles up - this will happen nearly instantaneously. Pour the sauce over the fish. Scatter the scallions, ginger, and cilantro over top. Note: When I made this on Instagram Stories, a number of people suggested I put the herbs on first, then pour the hot oil and sauce over them - will try this next time and report back. Serve with bowls of steamed rice.

Steps:
- Cut half of the scallion and ginger into small sections.
- For decoration: shred scallion with a fork and then soak them in cold water.
- Clean the fish completely and peel off any black skins in the stomach of the fish. Drain completely.
- Watch the body shape if your fish. If it gets a thick back, cut a line and separate the back into two parts. Or if it gets thick stomach, cut 2 lines on the thickest meat, so the meat can be cooked in a shorter time and be kept as tender as possible. (Optional for fresh water fish only), spread a very thin layer of salt on the surface and stomach of the fish. Place scallion and ginger inside of the fish.
- Place two scoops on the plates, or two sections of chopsticks and then place the fish in.
- Bring enough water to a boiling in a large pot and place the fish in after the water boils. Start the count the time, steam 5 minutes and stand for 1 to 2 minutes.
- Transfer the fish to a clean plate, discard the scallion and ginger and place the newly cut scallions. Heat around 2 tablespoons of cooking oil until almost smoky and pour the oil evenly on the scallion shreds.
- Heat the seasoned soy sauce until warm and pour evenly on the plate. If your soy sauce is cold, pour them on the two sides of the fish, not over the fish.
- Serve hot and should be finished within 10 minutes.

Steps:
- Remove any scales from your fish using a serrated steak knife. The areas to look for are the belly and the edges of the fish including the top, near the dorsal fins, and the head. There is nothing worse than having to pick out scales while you're having dinner.
- Cut off any fins with kitchen shears. They are pretty tough, so be careful with this step. Leave the tail and head in tact for presentation.
- Look at the cavity, and you should see the backbone. You may also see a membrane that you should pierce and cut, revealing a blood line near the bone. Run your finger or a spoon across it to clean it thoroughly.
- Check the head and gills. You should not see any gills left, and if there are, remove them with the kitchen shears and rinse the area clean. Older Chinese folks who like dining on the fish head will appreciate this step.
- Give the fish a final rinse, shake off the excess water (no need to pat it dry) and transfer to a heat-proof plate for steaming. No salt, seasoning, or wine should be used on the fish before steaming. Repeat. Nothing on the fresh fish before steaming!
- For steaming, I used an elongated heat-proof plate. To accommodate that, I needed to MacGyver a steaming apparatus that would fit said plate. It's simple enough. I used a wok and metal steam rack. If you need more height to keep the plate above the water in the wok, set a rack on top of a metal can with both ends removed. It's a handy and cheap addition to your kitchen arsenal!
- Steam for 9 minutes and turn off the heat. Use a butter knife to peek at the meat and confirm the fish is cooked through. The meat should be opaque down to the bone, but the bone should be slightly translucent and not fully cooked (remember, you will not be eating the bone. Trust me on this one!).
- Next, carefully pour off all of the liquid accumulated on the plate from steaming and spread half of the ginger, the green portions of the scallion, and the cilantro over the fish.
- Mix the water, salt, sugar, light soy sauce or seasoned soy sauce, and fresh ground white pepper in a small bowl or measuring cup. Heat 2 tablespoons oil and the other half of the ginger in a saucepan until the ginger begins to sizzle and add in the sauce mixture. Heat the mixture until simmering.
- Once simmering, add the rest of the oil and white portions of the scallion and stir until the liquid begins to simmer and sizzle once again. Spoon the entire mixture evenly over the fish and serve hot!

Steps:
- Scale and clean fish, leave head and tail on as long as it can fit into the steamer.
- Place cleaned fish on a heat proof dish that fits into your steamer.
- Rub fish inside and out with salt, garlic and a pinch of the ginger.
- Stuff the fish cavity with lup cheong, and sprinkle some of the sausage on top.
- place in steamer and steam for 8-10 minutes.
- In a small saucepan, heat peanut oil until it starts to sizzle.
- Remove fish from steamer when done. Sprinkle scallions, remaining ginger and cilantro sprigs on top of fish.
- Pour hot oil on top of fish and let it sizzle. Top with soy sauce.
- Fish with firm meat such as coho salmon, halibut fillets, mullet, pacific threadfin (moi), trout, bass or other snappers can be used.
- A wok can be used to make a steamer. You will need to find a round cake cooling rack or grill rack to fit the wok. Place the water in the bottom of the wok and place the dish of fish on the rack and cover the wok with a lid or aluminum foil. Do not let the water evaporate and clean and oil the wok immediately or it will start to rust.

#1 FAVORITE CHINESE STEAMED WHOLE FISH BY SY
Steamed whole fresh fish is one of the best liked of all Cantonese Chinese dishes. One of my favorite sauces to go along with steamed fish is a "Ginger and Scallion Sauce." Serve this simple and flavorful dish with plain white rice and a side dish of fresh green chinese vegetables topped with Oyster Sauce.

Steps:
- Clean and scale the fish and remove the insides, however, leave the head and tail on.
- Rinse under cold water and then pat dry.
- Place the fish in an oblong oven proof/microwave proof dish and add a little rice wine to both sides.
- After 5 minutes, remove the wine.
- Place two whole scallions under the fish to prop the fish up, which will allow steam to flow underneath.
- STEAMING THE FISH: Place water in a large wok and using a flat round trivet on top of the wok, bring water to a boil.
- Place the fish plate on the trivet and cover.
- Steam the fish for about 10-15 minutes, use a fork to poke the flesh of the fish to see that it is done (It should be white and not translucent, don't overcook).
- Remove the fish plate from the wok, pour off the cloudy liquid, discard the scallions and then place the plate in the kitchen sink.
- (Why? Cause when you pour hot oil over the fish, it will splatter all over).
- As an alternative for steaming, put plastic wrap over the fish plate and then into the microwave oven.
- Microwave on high for about 5-6 minutes; check for doneness as noted above, and pour off the cloudy liquid and discard the scallions.
- Sprinkle the fish with pepper& salt.
- Spread over the fish the scallions and ginger strips.
- In a small frying pan add the peanut& sesame oil and heat just to smoking.
- Then pour smoking oil over the fish, be careful with the oil splattering.
- Next add the soya sauce.
- Serve hot with white rice and chinese vegetables toped with oyster sauce!
