Baked Whole Salmon Recipe

It’s the best baked whole salmon recipe I have ever known. It is only prepared with a whole salmon so don’t make any cut into the disemboweled and scarf salmon.

Ingredients

2 salmons (gut them before)
2 whites of eggs,
3 lbs of big sea salt
Olive oil
Rosemary
Savory

Directions

Before starting to bake it warm the oven. Mix the whites until they become stronger and stronger and add the salt. Put a few water tablespoons and mix until the salt becomes moist but not wet. Take half of the composition and put it on the salver (like 1 finger thickness). Meanwhile anoint the fish with olive oil and put inside of it a bit of savory and rosemary. Don’t exaggerate with the last one.

Put the salmon on the bed of salt and cover it very well with the other half of the composition. If in the salver is not enough room for both salmons, it is ok if you let the head and the tail out of the salt. Put the salver into the oven and bake the salmon for 20 minutes. If there’s a bigger salmon, let him around 30-40 minutes. When the fish is ready let him for few minutes on the oven without the fire. To serve it break the salt crust and gave away the salt. Take off the herbs from the fish and remove the skin and serve it.

Tips

As garnish try some salads, spinach. As a wine, try some white Spanish wine.
