                                            <li> Salt and white pepper, to taste</li>

    <h2 class="block-title"><span>Directions</span></h2>

                            <li>In a saucepan, stir together mirin, sake, and ginger. Set on medium-low heat and cover until needed. </li>
                                    <li>Slice zucchini, squash, and carrots lengthwise, 1/8-inch thick. Then cut into thin strips to form spaghtettilike strands. Set carrots aside. </li>
                                    <li>Preheat a sauté pan over medium heat. Add a drizzle of olive oil and sauté carrots for 1 minute. </li>
                                    <li>Season the fish with salt and white pepper, add to mirin mixture, and cover. Steam for 10-12 minutes, or until firm. </li>
                                    <li>Add chicken broth to carrots and bring to a boil, then reduce heat. </li>
                                    <li>Add zucchini and squash to carrots, season with salt and white pepper, and cover. Simmer until tender; the vegetables should still hold their spaghetti shape, so be careful not to overcook. </li>
                                    <li>Remove all food from heat. Arrange vegetables on a plate, top with fish, and serve. </li>
