Embark on a culinary journey like no other as we unveil the mouthwatering delights of salt baked fish. Prepare to be enthralled as we delve into the depths of this ancient cooking technique, discovering the irresistible flavors and textures that make this dish an unforgettable delicacy.

Why Salt Baked Fish

There’s something truly magical about salt baked fish. It’s a culinary masterpiece that combines simplicity, elegance, and a burst of flavors that will leave you craving more. In this blog post, we invite you to explore the art of salt baking and unlock the secrets to creating a culinary marvel in your own kitchen.

One of the highlights of salt baked fish is the unique method of encasing the fish in a crust of salt, which not only enhances its flavor but also locks in its natural juices, resulting in moist, tender flesh. As the fish bakes, the salt crust forms a protective barrier, infusing the fish with delicate hints of saltiness and allowing the flavors to meld harmoniously.

While the concept of salt baking may sound intimidating, fear not! It is a lot easier than you think!

As you bake your salt-crusted fish to perfection, your kitchen will be filled with an enticing aroma that will make your mouth water in anticipation. The moment you crack open the crust and reveal the succulent fish within, your senses will be greeted with an explosion of flavors and aromas that will transport you to a world of gastronomic bliss.

But the journey doesn’t end there. We’ll also share creative garnishing ideas, adding vibrant herbs, zesty citrus, and a drizzle of aromatic olive oil to elevate the dish to new heights. Not only will your salt baked fish be a culinary triumph, but it will also be a feast for the eyes.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Large Branzino
  • 1 bunch Thyme
  • 1 bunch Dill
  • 1 Large Lemon
  • 3 Egg whites from 3 eggs
  • 2.5 cups Kosher Salt
  • 2 tsp black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400℉
  • Wash your fish and herbs. Pat dry
  • Separate your egg whites from your eggs. Mix with 2.5 cups of kosher salt
    Your salt mixture should feel like sand. If it is too wet then add more salt little by little.
  • Season the inside and outside of your fish with black pepper.
  • Thinly slice your lemons and layer your lemons and herbs in the cavity of the fish. Save 3 slices to lay on the top outside layer of the fish.
  • Cover the entire fish with your sandy salt mixture
  • Cook at 400 degrees for 15 minutes.
  • Check the crust after 15 minutes. The fish is ready when the salt crust is hard when you tap it with a fork and starting to brown around the edges. Cook up to an additional 10 minutes if need be.
