Steamed Sea Bass In Napa Cabbage Recipes

STEAMED SEA BASS IN NAPA CABBAGE

Steps:

• To make the sea bass, place the fish in a baking dish just large enough to hold them in single layer. In a small bowl, mix together the sacha sauce, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, oil, and chile. Pour the mixture over the fish, cover, and let marinate refrigerated for 2 hours.
• Bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Add a generous amount of salt, and bring the water back to a boil. Prepare an ice-water bath. Add the cabbage leaves to the boiling water, and cook until they are tender but still retain their crispness, about 1 minute. Remove the leaves from the water, and immediately plunge them into the ice-water bath. Allow the cabbage leaves to cool for about 1 minute in the ice-water bath, and then pat dry using paper towels.
• Remove 1 piece of fish from the marinade; place on a cabbage leaf about 1 inch from the edge. Fold in the left and right edges of leaf, and then roll the fish up in the leaf to enclose completely. Place seam side down in a bamboo steamer basket. Repeat process with remaining fish and cabbage leaves.
• Fill a large skillet with water and bring to a boil. Place bamboo steamer into the skillet and cover. Steam the fish until the edges of the fish are firm and white, about 6 minutes.
• To make the sauce, place the ginger in a small food processor and process until pureed. Transfer the ginger puree onto a paper towel. Over a medium bowl, squeeze the ginger in the paper towel until all the ginger juice is extracted from the pulp; discard pulp. Add the oyster sauce, sugar, soy sauce, vinegar, and oil to the ginger juice and whisk together.
• Place 2 of the wrapped fish rolls on each of 4 heatproof plates. Drizzle sauce around fish. Garnish fish with scallions and ginger. Carefully pour 1 tablespoon heated grape seed oil over scallions and ginger. Serve immediately.

• Prepare the lemongrass by removing the outer tough leaves to reveal the white center. Smash each stalk with the back of a knife to release the oils and flavor.
• Lay the sliced limes in the bottom of a large baking dish. Evenly space the lemongrass pieces on top of the limes and lay the ginger strips evenly around the lemongrass. Arrange the fillets directly on top, pour the sake over the fish and season with salt. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake until the fish is firm, opaque in the center, and beginning to flake, about 15 minutes. The cooking time varies depending on the thickness of the fillets.

NAPA CABBAGE 'STEAK'

Steps:

• Slice off bottom inch of cabbage at stem end. Remove one layer of leaves and discard. Carefully remove remaining leaves until you get to smaller central ones. Reserve smaller leaves for another use. You should have about 12 large leaves.
• Place one leaf on work surface. Top with another leaf facing the opposite direction, that is, with cut end at leafy end. Dust with pinch of sea salt. Continue stacking leaves, alternating their direction, and dusting every second leaf with salt. Place stack four inches from end of a 16-inch sheet of foil. Lift end of foil over stack of leaves and tightly roll, wrapping the foil as you go. Be careful that foil is wrapped around only the outside of cabbage roll. Tightly tie roll with butcher's cord at 1 1/2- to 2-inch intervals. You should be able to make 6 ties. Use large knife to slice about 1/2 inch from ends of roll, so cut sides are smooth. Then slice roll in sections between cord. You should have 6 thick rounds of cabbage, each wrapped in foil and tied.
• Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in skillet large enough to hold rolls, a cut side down, in single layer. Cook rolls over medium-low heat until lightly browned on bottom and steam rises from center, 5 to 8 minutes. Turn rolls and cook on other side until lightly browned. Remove rolls to baking dish and place in oven.
• While cabbage is cooking, mix yuzu juice, soy sauce and grapeseed oil together and set aside.
• Place remaining olive oil in skillet. Add mushrooms and sauté over medium-high heat until softened and lightly browned. Remove from heat. If not serving dish immediately, place mushrooms in small baking dish in oven to keep warm.
• To serve, remove cabbage from oven and, keeping rolls standing on a cut side, transfer to serving dish or put each on a salad plate. Snip cords and carefully remove foil. Cabbage rolls should hold together neatly. Sprinkle cabbage rolls with bonito flakes. Toss mushrooms with yuzu mixture, place a few mushroom pieces on top of each cabbage roll and serve.
