BONE MARROW WITH PARSLEY SALAD

Categories     main-dish

Time 20m

Yield serves 2 as a meal, 4 as an opening course

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 teaspoon anchovy paste from a jar or tube
1/4 teaspoon smooth Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed and strained lemon juice
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon finely diced shallot
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 to 6 marrow beef bones, either 3-inch-long round bones or 6-inch-long "canoes" (long bones split down the middle) or a mixture, exteriors scraped clean
2 cups flat-leaf parsley leaves, picked but not chopped
1/4 cup fresh tarragon, picked but not chopped
Maldon smoked sea salt, save for serving (see Cook's Note)

Steps:

  • A half hour before cooking, set the oven to 450 degrees F and position a rack in the middle position.
  • Whisk the anchovy paste, mustard and lemon juice together in a large salad bowl or small mixing bowl. Slowly whisk in the olive oil, then stir in the shallot and season with kosher salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • Place the marrow bones (the rounds on the wider flat ends) in a cast-iron pan or on a small pan lined with foil. If you're cooking "canoes," arrange them split-side up and crinkle the foil to keep them level so fat doesn't run out during cooking. If you're cooking a mixture of the two, which is kind of unlikely, you can just fit everything in one pan. Place in the hot oven and roast 15 minutes.
  • While the bones roast, toss the herbs in the dressing and divide between serving plates.
  • As soon as the bones are roasted, carefully transfer to plates, sprinkle over with the Maldon salt and serve.

ROASTED BONE MARROW WITH PARSLEY TOPPING

Time P1DT55m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

6 to 12 cups cold water
2 to 4 tablespoons kosher salt, plus 1 pinch for the topping
4 (6- to 7-inch) canoe-cut marrow bones, cleaned of any meat or fat on the exterior of the bones (See Cook's Note)
540 grams (about 4 cups) ice cubes
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup (25 grams) packed chopped fresh parsley
1/4 cup (15 grams) packed chopped celery leaves (or additional parsley leaves)
1 tablespoon (10 grams) finely chopped inner celery stalk
2 teaspoons (5 grams) finely chopped lemon peel
1 teaspoon (6 grams) minced shallot
1 teaspoon (4 grams) minced garlic
1 teaspoon (5 grams) capers, drained and chopped
2 to 4 slices toasted bread
Flaky sea salt (or additional kosher salt), for serving

Steps:

  • Fill a large 4- to 6-quart container with 6 cups cold water and whisk in 2 tablespoons of the kosher salt to dissolve. Add the marrow bones, cut-side down, and top with the ice. Refrigerate for 24 hours.
  • When ready to cook, preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and place a rack in the center position.
  • Drain the bones and pat dry with paper towels. You want the bones to cook as level as possible to minimize the loss of fat as it renders out, so place them cut-side down on a small sheet pan. Cover with a generous layer of aluminum foil, then use your hands to mold the foil around the bones and sides of the pans. Place a second pan on top of the foil, then flip the whole apparatus over. Remove the sheet pan that is now on top to reveal the bones, cut-side up, and nestled in foil. They should be pretty close to dead level.
  • Roast the bones for 8 minutes, then rotate the pan and continue roasting until the bones have browned and the marrow is spreadable and soft, but not melted, 15 to 18 minutes total.
  • While the bones roast, make the parsley topping. Whisk the oil, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt together in a medium bowl. Add the parsley leaves, celery leaves, celery stalk, lemon peel, shallot, garlic, and capers and toss to combine.
  • When the bones are finished, immediately dose about a third of the parsley mixture over the marrow and wait 5 minutes. Then, carefully transfer to a platter and serve with the toast, flaky salt, and remaining parsley mixture.

ROAST BONE MARROW WITH PARSLEY SALAD



Roast Bone Marrow With Parsley Salad image

This classic St. John dish uses veal bones for a more delicate texture and flavor. ("They've got youth on their side," says Fergus.) Ask your butcher for center-cut bones: You don't want the ends. When it comes to salt, Fergus uses coarse gray sea salt here because it maintains its crunch atop the succulent marrow.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality marrow bones. Look for beef or veal marrow bones that are at least 2 inches thick and have a good amount of marrow inside. Avoid bones that are cracked or have been frozen.
  • Roast the bones at a high temperature. This will help to caramelize the marrow and give it a rich, nutty flavor. You can roast the bones in the oven or on a grill.
  • Let the bones cool slightly before handling them. The marrow is very hot when it first comes out of the oven, so be careful not to burn yourself.
  • Use a spoon to scoop out the marrow. Once the bones are cool enough to handle, use a spoon to scoop out the marrow. You can spread the marrow on bread or crackers, or use it to make a sauce or soup.
  • Season the marrow to taste. You can season the marrow with salt, pepper, herbs, or spices to taste.

Conclusion:

Roast bone marrow is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways. It's a great appetizer, snack, or main course. It's also a good source of nutrients, including protein, iron, and calcium. So next time you're looking for something new and exciting to try, give roast bone marrow a try.
