Wednesday’s Helping: Wrap up cod with more zing

Try more seasonings

What else can you use to season the banana-leaf wrapped cod?  We suggest adding combination of a drizzle of soy sauce, seaweed nori, and sesame oil instead of using butter.  You can also try olive oil, paprika, dill, cardamom for a more Middle Eastern taste in the result.  Otherwise, try adding horseradish, garlic, and a drizzle of Worcestershire sauce.  The banana leaf will always leave its trademark earthy and green flavor essence on whatever is wrapped inside it.  Plain foil or taro leaf can substitute if you cannot find banana leaf.
