Salt Baked Sea Bass

Salt baked sea bass is a great dish to serve at a dinner party. You can prepare the salt crust and fish in advance, baking it in the oven while you are having your starters. The egg whites make the salt go hard, creating an oven shell that keeps the fish beautifully moist. You can serve the baked sea bass at the table, breaking the salt crust in front of your guests for a bit of theatre to your meal. Salt baked fish works well with some boiled new potatoes, a green salad and either a mustard and honey vinaigrette or a delicious hollandaise sauce.
