Salmon with Black Beans

Homemakers Best Tested
By
The Homemakers Test Kitchen
Chinese fermented black beans add a wonderful, piquant hit of saltiness; buy them at Chinese grocers. If unavailable, use black bean and garlic sauce, sold at most grocery stores.

Ingredients

4 tsp  (20 mL)  fermented black beans, or 1 tbsp/15 mL black bean and garlic sauce
1-1/2 lbs  (750 g)  salmon steak or fillet
1/4 tsp  (1 mL)  each salt and white pepper
2 green onions, julienned
2-inch (5 cm)  piece gingerroot, peeled and julienned
1 or 2 red hot peppers, seeded and julienned
1/2 tsp  (2 mL)  sesame oil
coriander sprigs

Preparation

In small bowl, soak fermented black beans in water for 10 minutes; drain.

Place salmon on heatproof plate. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Scatter soaked beans or spoon black bean and garlic sauce (if using) over top; cover with onions, ginger and pepper.

Place plate in hot steamer; steam, covered, over high heat until fish flakes easily, about 12 minutes. Remove plate from steamer; sprinkle fish with sesame oil and garnish with coriander.

Makes 4 servings.
