Panko Fried Oysters and Mackarel with Ginger Miso Sauce

 Shinho bought fresh oysters from Minterbrook Oyster farm. They were very big. I like smaller one better, but they were good for frying.
 This is one of popular Japnese dish, Saba Misoni. Mix 1 cup water, 4 Tbs miso, 2 Tbs brown sugar, 1 Tbs mirin 1Tbs sake. Bring the miso mixture to boil in a shallow sauce pan, add thinly sliced ginger (about 1 Tbs). Then add the fillet and cook with medium high heat. When the sauce is thickened and the fish is cooked, add scallion and cook for a minute.

Shumai

 The first photo is the glass noodle salad. Next one is shumai, Japanese version of pork shumai. I used Chinese wonton skin which is larger and thicker than Japanese shumai skin, but it worked.

California Halibut

 I found California Halibut at Costco. It said, fresh and wild. So I bought them. The fillet is much smaller than halibut. They look like founder. Is California halibut a new name of flounder?

Anyway I lightly salt and peppered  them and dusted with flour and pan fried, poured lemon butter sauce over the fish. They were delicious, just tasted like sole.

Salmon with Soy Ginger Sauce

 
Nothing new recently. I think I made similar one before. I need some new inspiration. Grocery shopping here is not so much fun. I wish we had more variety of fish.

Sesame Crusted Tuna

 

Cod with Leak

 
Shinho likes leak. We went to grocery shopping together the other day and he got a bunch of leaks. I made potato and leak soup and still have some left. So I came up with this recipe. Braise leak in chicken broth and add cod. I think I should have sear cod with butter first or added some cream to finish.

Stewed Hamburger

 
Make hamburgers and browened them in sautee pan. In medium sauce pan, sautee thinly sliced onion until browned. Add red wine and canned chopped tomato, tomato paste. Add hamburger and simmer for 30 minutes.
