I liked this. The vinaigrette is especially delicious. The steamed fish came out perfectly after 4 minutes. The only thing I will try differently this next time is seasoning the fish some time in advance so that that flavors penetrate the flesh. All in all, this is very simple recipe, and the vinaigrette will make your tastebuds dance!
I liked this, as did my guests. However, I would prefer a less pronounced rice vinegar flavor. Next time I will reduce to to 2.5 tablespoons. The fish can go from perfectly cooked at internal temperature of 120 degrees to overcooked in less than a minute. I will pay closer attention to doneness next time.
