Preparation Steps
- Begin by cleaning and gutting your whole fish, making sure it's thoroughly scaled. Score lines on both sides for even cooking.
- Rub the fish inside and out with spices and aromatics, allowing flavors to infuse for about 15 minutes.
- In a mixing bowl, combine coarse sea salt with enough water until it resembles wet sand. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Pack the salt mixture tightly around the fish, covering it completely, and bake for 30-40 minutes.
- While the fish bakes, slice the vegetables and sauté them over medium heat for about 5 minutes.
- Remove from heat, drizzle with vinegar, and let them marinate while the fish finishes cooking.
- Once the fish is done, carefully break through the salt crust and plate with the escovitch veggies.
