    ↔ No Sauce: gochujang (Korean chili paste)? Sriracha or another chili paste with a little miso and honey gets close. It won’t have the same fermented depth.

Steps

Translated from the Korean original. Amounts are as in the original recipe.

  1. Thoroughly stir-fry the minced garlic in butter.
  2. Sprinkle with white wine and make the sauce with the sauce ingredients.
  3. Lightly steam the fish in a steamer, cooking it only to about 80%.
  4. Season the steamed croaker with wine and pepper, then coat with starch.
  5. Pack a thick layer of herb crust onto the starch-coated croaker.
  6. Oil a pan, grill the croaker on one side, flip and grill again, and drizzle with the sauce to finish.
💡 TipSteaming the fish instead of braising it lowered the salt, and adding wine, onion, and garlic oil to the sauce reduced the amount of gochujang while boosting the flavor.
