Sake-Steamed Salmon

Chef Tom Douglas makes his recipe for sake-steamed sockeye salmon.

Sake-Steamed Sockeye Salmon with Sake Butter

Fill a large saucepan or wok with 2 cups water. Add lemongrass, sake, ginger, star anise, and orange peel. Bring to a boil. Spray the bottom interior of a bamboo steamer with cooking spray and set over saucepan; add salmon fillets. Cover and steam until salmon is just cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes. Serve over white rice with sake butter and lime wedges.
