Steamed Golden Pomfret

Steamed Golden Pomfret

Overview

Usually the fish we steam is freshly killed live fish, so that the steamed taste is delicious enough. I went to the supermarket today and found some chilled golden pomfret that had just been taken out of the cold storage. The fish had bulging eyes and pink gills. Although it was frozen, it still looked quite fresh, so I bought a few and took them home. This is the first time I tried steaming frozen fish. It tasted pretty good and there was basically no fishy smell.
