Microwaving raw fish is actually an effective way to steam-cook them without a steamer. I've been doing this my entire life, though with soy sauce, ginger, and green onion instead of olive oil and lemon.

Yeah david Chang is a fan of the method…microwaves get a bad rap, just another form of heating.

It's not that it doesn't work, but it makes the microwave reek of fish for days. A properly vented microwave dedicated to fish would be fine

Hmm... should I buy an outside microwave? I do like steamed fish.

Unironically I feel like everyone has an old shitty dorm room microwave, or they're cheaaap on Craigslist, I wanna put one out in a shed where I can make delicious instant steamed fish
