Steamed yellow croaker

Clean the yellow croaker thoroughly, removing scales and guts. Make two diagonal slits on each side of the fish. Pat the yellow croaker dry with paper towels.

Rub white pepper evenly over the yellow croaker, inside and out.

Take half of the ginger and half of the scallion, slice them into thick sections. Stuff these sliced ginger and scallion sections into the belly cavity and slits of the yellow croaker. Drizzle Shaoxing wine over the fish.
