Tips for steaming fish:
The first step in steaming fish is not marinating it. If you add salt to marinate the fish, it will cause the fish to lose a lot of moisture, the meat will not be firm, and it will have a strong fishy smell. Usually, after steaming the fish, just pour a suitable amount of soy sauce and cooking oil on top to stimulate the flavor of the steamed fish.
When steaming fish, you should use a lot of scallions and shredded ginger, as these spices can remove the fishy smell and enhance the aroma of the fish, making it more delicious.
