How to Prepare:
-
Thaw the sealed pouch in the refrigerator overnight.
-
Preheat your oven or toaster oven to 350°F (175°C).
-
Open the pouch and place the eel fillet skin-side down on a foil-lined baking sheet.
-
Heat for 5-8 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbling and the edges are slightly crispy. Do not microwave, as this will make the skin rubbery.

Serve immediately over a bowl of steamed Japanese rice.
