Instructions
- Prepare the Ingredients: Slice the ginger and garlic thinly, and chop the green onions, setting them aside. Cut the salmon fillet into portions if desired.
- Setting Up the Steamer: Create a simple steamer using a pot and a heatproof plate. Fill the pot with an inch of water and bring it to a gentle simmer.

- Finish Up: Once cooked, garnish with green onions and additional lemon. Serve right away.
Notes
Avoid overcooking by checking the salmon a few minutes before it’s supposed to be done.
