Steamed Shiitake and White Fish with Douchi

Shiitake enhances the aroma of “Douchi”(fermented and salted black soybean). When you lift the lid after steaming white fish and Shiitake with Douchi, the aroma that wafts out is fantastic! This recipe works well with white fish such as marlin, cod, sea bream, and flounder. ※ This dish is also recommended to eat on rice. Recipe created by DRY and PEACE
