Clean and scale the sea bream, removing the innards.

Make shallow cuts on both sides of the fish to help it cook evenly.

Rub the fish inside and out with salt, then set aside for 10 minutes.

In a steaming dish, combine sake, soy sauce, and water to create the steaming liquid.

Place ginger slices inside the cavity of the fish and on top.

Arrange scallions, mushrooms, and carrots around the fish in the steaming dish.

Cover the dish with a lid or foil to trap steam.

Bring water to a boil in a steamer pot, then place the steaming dish inside.

Steam the fish for 15-20 minutes, or until the flesh is opaque and flakes easily.

Remove the dish from the steamer and let it rest for 5 minutes.

Garnish with lime wedges, cilantro, and a drizzle of sesame oil before serving.

Serve with daikon radish and black pepper on the side.
