    Utensils Used
    | 1. Put first 7 ingredients in blender and process to a puree (use some of the broth if necessary). | 2. Add this puree to the rest of the broth in a wide heavy based pan (you will be poaching fish in this pan), bring to a boil, lower heat and simmer 5 minutes. | 3. Taste now for seasoning, adding salt/soy if necessary. | 4. Optional Extra Step: Sear fish pieces in a separate very hot saute pan in some butter or oil--no more than 30 seconds each side (This adds color and flavor, but isn't strictly necessary). | 5. Add fish pieces to simmering (it should be bubbling when you add fish) liquid and poach on slightly lowered heat, turning once, about 5 to 8 minutes total (depends on type and thickness of fish and if you have seared it). | 6. Do not overcook! | 7. Remove fish and serve in a platter, with sauce poured over the fish. | 8. Sprinkle with garnishes. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
