Cooking tips
- Stirring the fish frequently can cause it to break apart easily, so it's best to gently shake the pot during cooking instead of stirring.
- Since the fish is braised using only rice wine and soy sauce without water, be careful with the heat to prevent the sauce from sticking and burning on the edges of the pot.
- Adding soy sauce from the beginning can make the fish too salty. It's better to add soy sauce after the fish has absorbed the sweetness from the Cheongju and Mirin for a deeper flavor.
