SEA BASS BAKED IN A SALT CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place salt in a baking dish, and heat in the oven for 15 minutes.
• Remove salt from oven, and increase temperature to 450 degrees. In the bottom of a roasting pan large enough for the fish, spoon about a third of the warm salt in the approximate shape and size of the fish. Lay 2 slices of lemon and 3 sprigs of tarragon on the salt.
• Lay the fish on top. Place the remaining lemon slices and tarragon on top of the fish. Spoon the remaining salt on top of the fish, patting it on the sides and making sure to cover it completely.
• Bake the fish 10 to 12 minutes, or 8 minutes for each inch of thickness. Check for doneness by inserting the tip of a knife through the salt crust into the thickest part of the fish and wedging it slightly to see if the flesh is cooked.
• Remove fish from oven, and quickly break off the salt, brushing off as much as possible. Transfer to a serving platter. At the table, remove the skin and fillet the fish. Pass the olive oil for sprinkling over the fillets.

BAKED SEA BASS IN CRUST WITH BASIL

Steps:

• Place all pastry ingredients except water in the bowl of a food processor and blend for 5 seconds. Add water gradually and blend until pastry pulls away from the sides and begins to form a ball. On a floured board, shape the dough into a ball. Wrap it in plastic wrap and refrigerate it until ready to use.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
• Place the fish on a flat surface. Sprinkle its cavity with salt and pepper and stuff it with the basil leaves.
• Divide the chilled pastry in half and roll out one half into a rectangle 16 by 9 inches. Arrange the pastry on a large baking sheet. Arrange the fish lengthwise over the center of the pastry. Brush the pastry all around the fish with the egg yolk mixture.
• Roll out the remaining pastry in a rectangle and place over fish. Press the pastry around the sides of the fish to seal it. Use a sharp knife to cut pastry around fish, leaving a border of about 1 1/2 inches. If you wish, trim the pastry into the shape of a fish and decorate the top with cutouts or a scale pattern using a No. 6 pastry tube to indent the dough. Brush pastry with remaining egg yolk mixture.
• Place the fish in the oven and bake for 30 minutes or until pastry is lightly browned. Reduce to 400 degrees. If necessary cover crust with aluminum foil. Cook for 15 minutes more. Serve immediately with tomato coulis with basil.

• Brush a large sheet of aluminum foil with oil and place sea bass on top. Insert lime slices into the fish and scatter spring onions, carrot, ginger, and garlic on top. Drizzle fish with soy sauce and sesame oil, and sprinkle cilantro on top. Bring the ends of the aluminum foil together and fold and twist to seal in the fish. Place packet on a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, 30 to 35 minutes.
• While fish bakes, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook noodles in the boiling water until tender yet firm to the bite, 1 to 3 minutes. Drain well.
• Heat oil in a wok; add red onions and garlic and cook over high heat for 30 seconds. Add bean sprouts and cook until beginning to soften, about 1 minute. Add cooked noodles and soy sauce. Cook, stirring and tossing well, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Remove fish from the oven, unwrap, and transfer to a large serving platter. Garnish with cilantro leaves and lime wedges. Serve the fish cut into slices with the noodles.

BAKED SEA BASS STUFFED WITH SHELLFISH

Steps:

• Set a rack in the upper third of the oven. Preheat it to 475 degrees. Soak the clams and mussels for 5 minutes in a large bowl of cold water. Scrub the shells using a stiff brush. Drain. Discard any shellfish that don't shut when tapped. Pull away fibers from the mussels.
• Put the clams, mussels and wine in a large pot, cover and set over high heat. Shake the pan occasionally and remove the shellfish as soon as their shells open. Shell the clams and mussels and place their meat in a bowl. Strain the juices through a paper-towel-lined fine sieve and into the bowl of shellfish. Let soak for 20 minutes.
• Transfer the shellfish to a large bowl. Set the juices aside. Pat the shrimp dry, chop theminto bite-size pieces and add to the bowl of shellfish along with the garlic, onion, parsley, lemon juice, olive oil and bread crumbs. Season all over with salt and pepper and toss gently.
• Line a baking sheet with 2 layers of foil, extending double the length of the pan. Pour some of the shellfish juices on the bottom of the pan and place the fish in the center. Season the inside of the fish with salt and pepper. Stuff it with the shellfish mixture. Moisten the skin side of the fish with some of the remaining shellfish juices. Fold the foil over the fish, crimping the edges to tightly seal it. In the upper third of the oven, roast the striped bass for about 40 to 45 minutes (or the small branzini for 15 to 20 minutes). Let rest for 10 minutes. Cut open the pouch. Remove the fins. Slice the fish across as you would a roast. Top each slice with some of the juices.

LOUP DE MER EN PAPILLOTE (BAKED SEA BASS WRAPPED IN PAPER)

Steps:

• Preheat oven (390° F, 200° C).
• Pepare a parchment paper large enough to wrap the fish. Spread a little of the olive oil where you will put the fish on.
• Crush the black peppercorns a little in a mortar and pestal, but it should be coarse though.
• Remove from one rosemary sprig, the leaves. You can chop them, but I prefer to leave the small leaves as they are.
• Clean the fish and brush both sides with olive oil. Salt to taste (inside and outside).
• Put 2 sprigs of rosemary into the cavity and also add a small piece of butter. If you like, put 2 slices of lemon into the cavity too.
• Sprinkle a little of black pepper and rosemary leaves onto the parchment paper and then place the fish on it.
• Cover the fish with the rest of black pepper and the rosemary leaves.
• Squash the garlic cloves (do not peel them) and place them on top of fish. Cut the butter into small pieces and arrange on top of fish too.
• Wrap the parchment paper around the fish to make a package. Fold over the edges to seal the package.
• Brush a little of the olive oil over the paper. This will protect it from burning.
• Put the package on a baking tray and bake for about 25 minutes.
• Serve the fish hot in the package.
• NOTE: use smaller fish for this recipe.

SEA BASS BAKED IN COCONUT MILK

Steps:

• Sprinkle the fish lightly with the salt and place it in a non-reactive baking pan just slightly larger than the fish. Spread the seafood marinade over the fish, massaging it into the flesh with your hands. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Remove the fish from the refrigerator and surround it with the shallots, galangal and lemongrass. Pour in the coconut milk. Bake for 30 minutes, or until the fish is just cooked through. Place the fish on a platter. Discard the galangal and lemongrass and pour the sauce from the pan over and around the fish. Serve immediately.
