Lightly Flavored Simmered Flounder

My father goes fishing often, so I learned how to cook many kinds of fish and this is one of them. I've learnt small tips that aren't even on cookbooks as I made many mistakes.Make sure you add the fish after the cooking liquid comes to a boil. It is cooked quickly with a relatively small amount of cooking liquid using the convection created by the otoshibuta. Don't flip over the fish as it will fall apart. The side of the fish that will be facing up when you serve it will be the side that is facing up when you cook. Do not reduce the cooking liquid too much with the fish in it. You won't mess up. Recipe by Korinontamaru

Through much trial and error I was able to come up with a tasty way to enjoy plain flounder.Mind the fish doesn't crumble when you are transferring it to serving plates. Recipe by Ryouri daisuki danshi

I had some inexpensive flounder in the freezer, so I simmered it.I usually make this without measuring but this time I measured while cooking.Cooking fish with soft flesh in water and sake helps the proteins prevent the fish from falling apart since it sets the protein (collagen).It's a bit troublesome, but be sure to add the seasonings separately!The fish will absorb the flavours more once it cools, so take into consideration the time to cool and reheat time when preparing.

On my way back from fishing I stopped into a fish market by the bay. I found some flounder offcuts that were pretty cheap, so I bought them. Had to put them to good use.The tofu is the heart of this dish.Garnishing with sansho leaves gives it an even more authentic touch. Recipe by MuryouanUKI

Amate flounder was being sold for 170 yen and medaka flounder was being sold for 350 yen at the supermarket, and I didn't know the difference between the two, so I experimented.The simmering broth should be half-absorbed into the flounder. If you don't thin the flavor a little, then you will be in for a nasty surprise when it simmers down.If you don't use a drop lid, then the small amount of broth won't soak in all the way, so please use one.I personally recommend adding more honey as opposed to sugar. It dissolves easily, loses the peculiarity of honey when boiled down, and is mild in taste. For 2 servings. Recipe by nyatto

My mother told me that I had to use a large saucepan when making simmered dishes, but I had trouble when cooking fish, because I couldn't turn it over easily. I thought it would be better in a frying pan, after all, a frying pan is large and wide and the fish won't burn. I tried it and it worked fine. Now, I always make fish dishes in the frying pan.It can be tricky to turn the fish over, so I used a spatula. It's easier if you use the edges of the pan to help you. The fish won't burn in a non-stick frying pan, so even beginners will find this easy. The fish will crumble if you leave the heat on high, so be careful. Recipe by cleam

The simmered beans I used to have were pretty salty. I wanted my own kind that wouldn't so high in sodium -- that's how this recipe was born.I like that these are slightly less sweet than store-bought simmered beans. I also like that they have less soy sauce than the store-bought quality. I like the reduced simmering liquid too. So basically I've made simmered beans just the way I like them. For an easy to make amount. Recipe by Mamemame
