HINTS & TIPS
Use simple flavour combinations when steaming fish to maintain the natural flavours of the fish
Edamame beans are readily available at most supermarkets or Asian grocers, if you can get fresh you will find them in the freezer section
80 degrees is about the highest temperature you should use when steaming fish, any higher and the delicate flesh of most fish will become tough and dry
