Fish baked in foil with green onions and ginger is a true embodiment of simplicity and sophistication in European cuisine. This dish harmoniously intertwines the freshness of salmon, the spiciness of ginger, and the gentle sweetness of green onions. Soy sauce and oils add depth to the fish's flavor, creating a rich yet refined palette. Baking in foil preserves the juiciness of the ingredients, while the aroma released upon opening the hot packet awakens the appetite. This dish is perfect for a special dinner or a light yet nutritious lunch. Serve with rice or fresh vegetables to highlight its delicate flavor nuances. The secret to its uniqueness lies in the balance of textures and aromas that makes each bite unforgettable.

In a small bowl, mix finely chopped green onions, thinly sliced fresh ginger, soy sauce, peanut and sesame oil, and sugar. Place the mixture on top of the fish. Wrap tightly in foil and bake for about 20-25 minutes, depending on the size of the fish (usually about 10 minutes for every 2.5 cm thickness of the fish).
