Ingredients

1. 1 1/2 cups Dashi
2. 1 tablespoon mirin
3. 1 tablespoon soy sauce
4. 1 teaspoon cornstarch mixed with 2 teaspoons water
5. Four 5-ounce cod fillets, skinned
6. Salt
7. 1/2 cup finely grated daikon

1. In a medium saucepan, mix the dashi with the mirin and soy sauce. Whisk in the diluted cornstarch and simmer over low heat until reduced to 1/2 cup, about 30 minutes.
2. Season the cod with salt. Top each fillet with 2 tablespoons of the grated daikon. Place the fillets in a steamer set over simmering water and steam over moderate heat until the fish is just cooked through, about 5 minutes.
