Hotamp 3rd Gear January 14, 2016 Share January 14, 2016 overfishing is a big issue. Many fishes in SEA are under threat from overfishing and it's inevitable that their populations will be decimated. We'll never get as big and tasty fish as like the previous generation already. Just enjoy it while you can. I never knew got fish farm pomfret. thought usually is seabass and some of the groupers. haha I dunno if the pomfrets I ate were commercially bred or not ....but I do find that nowadays those fishes I got from NTUC tastes funny and the texture is not as good as those I remembered from wet market kind of yesteryears. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lala81 Hypersonic January 14, 2016 Share January 14, 2016 Alamak. Then what fish to eat? Although I dont eat as often. Silverfish slight pricier but I dont eat as much n half the time used for soup. Yes, recently ntuc inc price by about $3 per kg. Rubbish inflation or is it becos near cny? what do u mean when u say silverfish?

Lala81 Hypersonic January 14, 2016 Share January 14, 2016 Sure. Was thinking of trying to do the sauce that Chef Sam Leong taught on yesterday 8pm Ch8 show for steam fish. He said all restaurant do like that. Use medium fire to fry sliced ginger in oil till golden brown Throw in a few stalks of spring onion Throw in few pieces of rock sugar Pour in 210ml light soya sauce Pour in thick soya sauce till colour is black enough for your liking Twist and break one bunch of yen swee and throw it in. Once everything got lots of bubbles, turn off fire and allow to cool Drain everything and use the sauce to pour on the steamed fish. what's yen swee? Not the Bug hor ...

If you are not good with sauces you can buy bottled premix to be on the safe side ... Few things to remember ... 1. For Grouper, use 2 Chopsticks to support the fish when Steaming so it does not stick to the base ... 2. Pour away the water after steaming the fish ... 3. Heat up the sauce separately till boil ... Then pour on to fish ... 4. Heat up oil till hot ... Then pour on to fish ... This is why restaurants have a Shiny Glister on their fish ... 5. Finally, add Garnishes ... Step 3 and 4 must do simultaneously ... 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
