Ingredient Preparation
Clean the sea bass, remove the scales, gills and innards. Take the clean meat and cut it into 12 slices of even thickness (keep the head and tail aside), then toss with 2.5 g of salt. Steam the fish paste until cooked, then cut it into 12 even slices of the same size. Cut the ham into 12 slices of the same size. Cut the ginger into small flower shapes.
Plating and Steaming
On a plate, arrange the fish slices, fish paste and ham slices into a fish-scale pattern, top with the ginger flowers, and steam over high heat in a steamer until fully cooked. Remove and pour off the original liquid.
Preparing the Crab Roe
Pour boiling water over the crab roe to blanch it, then lift it out and set aside.
