Fish with vegetables in foil is an exquisite dish of Japanese cuisine that combines the freshness of white fish and aromatic vegetables. Baking in foil preserves the delicate texture of the fish while infusing it with the juices of carrots, onions, and lemon. This cooking method was popular among Japanese fishermen who prepared caught fish right on the shore by wrapping it in leaves or paper. The flavor of the dish is balanced: the juiciness of the fish is complemented by a light acidity from lemon and spiciness from seasonings, while herbs add a fresh finishing touch. It’s an ideal option for a light dinner or healthy lunch that combines simplicity in preparation with rich flavor. The dish does not require complex techniques but always delights with its beautiful presentation and natural ingredients that make it both light and nutritious.
