    His Dad gave a piece of critical instruction that I am not sure if he translated. When baking fish with high water content, make sure that is hot (425 F) before you put the fish in because the heat will quickly shear the surface of the fish to prevent the juice from coming out.

      You must try using Chinese knife which has two type, one for bone which is heavier for chopping and other is for lighting cutting the one he is using. Why chinese knife? It is fast and can cut a large amount in a short time, no other knife can do so much once you master the Chinese knifes! I work in the Chinese restaurant so all my staffs use this, even some of the kitchen helper is not Chinese!

      ​@@WaynesWorldStudioVancouverAlso, I like using the cleaver as I can properly scrape up all my chopped product to transfer to pot or pan. I have a huge collection of knives (don't ask....😂) but my cchinese cleaver is a go to along with my Henckel 9" chefs knife....oh and my favorite is a knife my father made as a wedding gift for my mom about 70+ years....takes an edge like no other and is thin and flexible. Sorry got off on a tangent there!

    chopping the ginger into thin pieces and then smashing them is genius, that really helps bring out the flavor

  • @Grizzleback07
    @Grizzleback07 Рік тому +50

    Personal tip: I always pre-heat my oven 20-25 degrees hotter than my actual cooking temperature. This counteracts the heat loss from opening the oven door and the oven will not have to work so hard to reheat back to the cooking temperature needed for the dish. I also keep a cast iron pan in the oven if possible to help retain heat during the cook phase.

    Hello from Australia :) I had a go at making this. No cod, so I used Hoki, and not having fresh ginger and garlic handy I used garlic and ginger pastes (not the stuff in a jar, it's local and in a tube. Better than the jarred stuff), and for vegetables I boiled "stir-fry" vegetables and some sad-looking bok choy that I had in the fridge. Pickled ginger, too for a colour splash :P Done in the air fryer, the fish turned out very well. I'll happily make this again :D

    Prepared this tonight with Swahi, which is super inexpensive, and it was a total hit with the family. Both the marinade and dip were amazing tasting, though for thinner fish I’ll probably switch to garlic powder and salt the mixture to taste so you can enjoy the aromatics in quantity without being so strong in salinity.
