    Remove the frozen eel from the outer package. Thaw under running water while still in the inner bag for about until fully softened.

  2. 2

    Bring water to a boil in a steamer. Remove the eel from the inner bag and steam on medium heat for about .

  3. 3

    Brush the steamed eel lightly with sauce, then toast in a toaster oven or pan for 30 seconds to until the surface is lightly crisped.

  4. 4

    Place rice in a bowl and drizzle with a small amount of sauce. Cut the eel into pieces, place on top, drizzle more sauce, and finish with sansho pepper.

Notes

Discounted eel that has been frozen at home works just as well. Steaming makes the eel soft and fluffy.
