Amberjack Simmered in Miso
- 3 pieces Amberjack (buri)
- 1 Boiled egg (or daikon if you like)
- 200 ml Water
- 100 ml Sake
- 2 tbsp Sugar
- 1 1/2 tbsp Soy sauce
- 2 tbsp Miso
- Please pick out a fresh amberjack with a pink flesh.
- If it's fresh, you just need to rinse the blood.
- This time I used a rather large slab around the jaws.
- Add the ingredients and let boil.
- Arrange the amberjack and cover with an otoshibuta.
- Simmer for 5 minutes over medium heat.
- Skim off the scum as needed.
- Add miso, cover, and simmer for another 10 minutes or so.
- Add a peeled boiled egg.
- If the sauce starts to reduce, add water to prevent it from burning.
- Coat the fish with sauce once it starts to thicken with the glaze.
- Be careful not to let it burn (it took about 20 minutes this time.)
- Serve on a plate.
- Cut the boiled egg in half and pour plenty of sauce over it.
- You could also simmer the fish with thick slices of daikon radish.
- I used the part around the jaws since it's fatty, delicious, and cheap.
- A normal fillet will cook faster.
