TRADITIONAL JAPANESE RECIPE: Saba Misoni is one of the most popular staple Japanese fish dishes. It is served everywhere. If you have the luck to travel to Japan and maybe sleep in a small hostel on the sea-side, Saba Misoni is what you'll find every morning as an option.
Saba Misoni is stewed with Miso Paste and therefore it brings up a very strong flavor that goes very well with simple Steamed Rice.
Saba Misoni is very easy to make, however you'll need fresh food.
Because Saba Misoni is cooked in the broth for about 20 minutes, it gets very soft. This long cooking will give a 'melt in the mouth' texture, while the thick Miso Sauce cuts any the fishy smell from the Saba.
