Dining with the Chef - Season 6 Episode 28 Rika's TOKYO CUISINE: Simmered Kinmedai Alfonsino

In this episode, we'll be making simmered kinmedai alfonsino, by simmering this winter fish in a sweet-and-savory broth. The soy sauce-flavored sauce, featuring the rich flavor of the fish, gives it a depth that goes great with rice. For a side dish, we'll be making grilled shiitake mushrooms, with shungiku chrysanthemum leaves for an herb-like freshness, and a sesame dressing to bring them together. We'll also be making easy fried tofu that uses just a little bit of oil, served with a refreshing ponzu sauce.
