Ingredients for Steamed Yellow Croaker with Black Bean and Pepper

How to cook steamed yellow croaker with black pepper

1. Clean the yellow croaker, make a few slanted cuts on its back, spread a small amount of salt evenly and marinate for about 20 minutes (a small amount of salt is enough, not too much, because you will need to add steamed fish soy sauce at the end).

2. Press the fermented black beans with the back of a knife and chop them into small pieces.

3. Take a fish plate and place ginger slices and scallion segments on the bottom of the plate.

4. Move the marinated fish to a fish plate, put ginger slices on it (also put ginger slices and scallions in the fish belly), pour a tablespoon of cooking wine, sprinkle with crushed black beans, and then put half of the chopped pepper.

5. Put water in the pot and bring it to a boil, then put the fish into the pot and steam it over high heat for about 8 minutes.

6. Take out the steamed fish and pour out the juice in the fish dish (this juice is where the fishy smell is, so it is recommended to pour it out).

7. Pour one tablespoon of steamed fish soy sauce over the fish.

8. Add the remaining half of the chopped pepper and sprinkle with chopped green onions. Heat cooking oil in a pan and pour over the fish.
