Stab a small bamboo stick into the middle of the fillet. Leave for a moment, pull it out and touch the end. If it's hot, the is ready.
# Meanwhile, in a medium pot, combine the remaining ¼ cup soy sauce, 2½ tablespoons mirin, 1½ teaspoons sugar, ¼ teaspoon ginger, ¼ teaspoon garlic, the chicken stock, rice wine vinegar and sesame oil.
