Steamed Salmon with Sauce

*Picture above also includes a lemony tomato sauce and separate vegetables for a more delicious touch*
Ingredients:
3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
1 1/2 tablespoons water
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons rice vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoons Wasabi paste
1 (1 1/2 pound) center-cut salmon fillet, skinned
4 Napa Cabbage Leaves

Instructions:
1) Combine first 4 ingredients, stirring until sugar dissolves; set aside.
2) Combine vinegar and wasabi in a small bowl, stirring until smooth. Spread Wasabi mixture evenly over top of salmon.
3) Line a bamboo steamer with cabbage leaves. Place salmon, wasabi side up, over cabbage in steamer basket; cover with steamer lid.
4) Add water to a large skillet to a depth of 1 inch; bring to a boil. Place steamer in pan; steam salmon 8 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork or until desired degree of doneness. Remove salmon from steamer; discard cabbage. Serve salmon with sauce; sprinkle with onions (I prefer grilled), if desired.

*Makes 4 servings* (Serving size: about 4 ounces of salmon and 1 1/2 tablespoons sauce)
