How To Make Salt Baked Fish (salt crust fish) by Theo Michaels Masterchef

Salt baked fish recipe...de-lic-ious!

Salt roasting, salt baking, salt crusted, whatever you want to call it is a delicious way to hold in all the flavours and juice from the fish you are cooking. Works equally well with salt crusted meat like chicken or lamb. This recipe works even better with a whole fish (whole salmon, trout, sea bass, etc.) If using a whole fish - no need to cure at the start. And once you crack open the salt shell simply peel away the fish skin to reveal the most tender and succulent flesh..!
