This evening, Bryan prepared dinner.
He's steaming fish and frying an omelet. He didn't tell us what he added into the fish before steaming, until we made a comment that the sauce is really, really good. I couldn't put a finger on it. It wasn't shoyu or oyster sauce. It was something different.
What was it???
Bryan revealed finally, he had added one soup-spoonful of brandy (X.O. Cognac).
Brandy ... Oh My ...
That certainly made all the difference. :D
