Ingredients
- 1 sea bass about 600 g
- 2 kg of gross salt
- 1/2 glass of water
- Olive oil, pepper and lemon for the serving part
Directions
- We clean the fish very well removing the intentional parts, rinse in running water, and dry it with kitchen paper. Don’t cut it, just put a little salt inside.
- Preheat the oven at 200 degrees.
- Prepare the salt adding the water.
- In a baking pan add 1/3 of salt, creating a thick layer 1,5 cm. If you prefer you can add herbs in the salt, like rosemary, salvia, thyme, etc. Put the fish above the salt layer and cover all the fish surface with the rest of the salt. We need to cover all the fish.
- Put the fish to bake in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes. It depends on the oven that you have, but in general, you need to calculate 5 minutes of baking time for each 100 g of raw fish.
- After removing from the oven, we break the salt crust with a kitchen knife, or something else, we clean the fish carefully from the salt and remove its skin. We clean from bones and serve it garnished with a little olive oil, fresh ground pepper, and lemon juice if you like.
