About

Ever since I discovered how soft and silky fish turns out in the Instant Pot^®, I’ve been hooked (no pun intended)! Please buy the freshest fish you can find, avoiding frozen fish if you can help it. Defrosted fish comes out too mushy when steamed.

Ingredients

2 tablespoons soy sauce
¼ teaspoon sesame oil
¼ teaspoon

Fish course
Pescatarian

Method

Stir together the soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar and water in a small bowl.
Pour 1 cup water into the pot and nestle a steamer rack inside.
