HERB AND SALT CRUSTED STANDING RIB ROAST RECIPE



Herb and Salt Crusted Standing Rib Roast Recipe image

Provided by á-478

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups kosher or sea salt
1 large egg white
3 Tbs. freshly ground black pepper
3 Tbs. chopped fresh thyme (stems included)
2 Tbs. chopped juniper berries
2 Tbs. chopped garlic
1 Tbs. chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
2 to 3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour; more for rolling
One 3-bone standing beef rib roast (about 7 lb.), cut from the loin end, chine bone and fat cap removed
1 Tbs. vegetable oil

Steps:

  • In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine 1 cup water with the salt, egg white, pepper, thyme, juniper, garlic, and parsley. Mix on medium speed until blended. On medium-low speed, mix in 2 cups of the flour, adding more as needed, until the dough is firm and feels slightly dry and stiff, like Play-Doh. Continue to mix for 2 minutes. The dough should be smooth and firm but not sticky; add more flour if necessary. Flatten the dough into a rectangle, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours and up to 6 hours. An hour before you're ready to roast, put the beef on the counter and let sit at room temperature. Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat the oven to 350°F. Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil and put the roast meat side down in the skillet; sear until deeply browned, about 5 minutes. Remove the roast from the pan and set it bone side down on a rack in a roasting pan. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into a 1/4-inch-thick rectangle. Drape the dough over the meat, tucking it in on all sides. Roast until an instant-read thermometer in the middle of the roast registers 125°F for rare or 135°F for medium rare, 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 hours. Let rest for 20 minutes, then remove and discard the crust. (After removing the crust, the roast can rest for up to 30 minutes more.) Carve and serve with the Morel Sauce.

STANDING RIB ROAST IN ROCK SALT



Standing Rib Roast in Rock Salt image

This recipe is so simple and yet so delicious. My dad used to make this when I was quite young (many years ago!) It is still a family favorite with my children and grandchildren - especially for holidays. No other seasoning is needed, and yet it has a wonderful flavor. The end pieces are well done for those who like it that way, but the center is rare to medium rare, and the juices are completely sealed in, so be careful when carving as the juices DO flow. Also, a great side dish with this roast is my "Easy quick garlic/dill potatoes".

Categories     Meat

Time 1h40m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 -6 lbs prime rib roast (adjust accordingly to approx. l lb. per person)
garlic (cloves slivered)
Worcestershire sauce
rock salt (8-10 lb. bag, depending on size of roast and roasting pan)

Steps:

  • Let beef roast set to room temp.
  • Preheat oven to 500 degrees.
  • With sharp steak knife puncture roast all over, placing slivered garlic in each puncture.
  • Simply insert end of knife and place sliver of garlic down along blade, deep into the roast, before removing knife.
  • Rub entire roast generously with worchestershire sauce.
  • In roasting pan just large enough to hold roast, cover bottom with rock salt.
  • Place roast on rock salt.
  • Then cover roast completely with more rock salt, so that no meat is uncovered.
  • Meat should not touch sides of roasting pan, but be completely encased in rock salt.
  • (Note: I gently spray a slight amount of water over top of salt to enable it to"hold and set" firmly.) Place in 500 degree oven and roast for 15 minutes per pound.
  • Remove meat from pan and place on cutting board, brushing off all rock salt, and cover with foil for 15-20 minutes before carving.
  • Serve with favorite horseradish sauce.
  • I prefer fresh ground horseradish from any supermarket deli.
  • Horseradish can be made milder by mixing with mayonnaise.

HERB SALT CRUSTED PRIME RIB



Herb Salt Crusted Prime Rib image

Provided by Sandra Lee

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 1/2 pounds beef rib roast
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon seasoned pepper, salt free
1 (3-pound) box kosher salt
2 packets Italian dressing mix
2 large egg whites
1/2 cup water
1 (14-ounce) can low-sodium beef broth
1 packet onion soup mix

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F. Line a roasting pan with aluminum foil.
  • Rinse the roast, pat it dry, and bring it to room temperature. Sprinkle with the Worcestershire sauce and seasoned pepper.
  • In a bowl add the kosher salt, Italian dressing mix, and egg whites and stir to combine. Sprinkle water over the top of the salt mixture until it is well-moistened, but not wet.
  • Place a 1/2-inch layer of the salt mixture in the middle of the roasting pan, slightly larger than the diameter of the roast. Place the roast, fat side up, on top of the salt. Insert a meat thermometer into the center of the roast. Carefully pack the remaining salt mixture onto the meat, covering it completely.
  • Place the roast in the oven and reduce the temperature to 425 degrees F. Roast for 14 to 16 minutes per pound, or until the thermometer reads 5 degrees F less than desired temperature. Final temperature for rare will be 130 degrees F; 135 degrees F for medium rare; 140 degrees F for medium.
  • Remove the roast from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes.
  • For jus, in a small saucepan over medium heat, add the beef broth and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat, add the soup mix, and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.
  • Remove the salt crust from the roast by breaking it and peeling it away. (You will probably need a hammer to do this.) Slice the meat to desired thickness and transfer slices to a platter. Ladle a small amount of jus over the top of the meat; serve remainder of jus on the side.
  • Cook's note: Have your butcher remove the ribs from the roast.

Categories     Pepper     Roast     Father's Day     Back to School     Dinner     Beef Rib     Fall     Gourmet

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 (4-rib) standing beef rib roast (bone-in prime rib; 9 to 10 pounds), at room temperature 1 hour
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons kosher salt
1/3 cup mixed peppercorns (pink, white, and green)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450°F with rack in middle.
  • Rub roast all over with oil, then sprinkle all over with kosher salt. Coarsely crush peppercorns in a folded kitchen towel (not terry cloth) with a meat pounder or bottom of a heavy skillet. Coat meat on all sides with peppercorns, pressing to help them adhere.
  • Roast on a rack in a 13- by 9-inch roasting pan 20 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F and roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into center of meat (do not touch bone) registers 110°F, 1 1/2 to 2 hours more. Transfer to platter and let rest, uncovered, 30 minutes (temperature of meat will rise to about 130°F for medium-rare).◊

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Roast: Select a high-quality standing rib roast with good marbling for maximum flavor and tenderness.
  • Prepare the Salt Crust: Combine salt, herbs, and spices to create a flavorful crust that will enhance the natural taste of the roast.
  • Roast at High Temperature: Start by roasting the beef at a high temperature to sear the outside and lock in the juices. Then, reduce the heat to allow the roast to cook evenly throughout.
  • Use a Meat Thermometer: Insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the roast to accurately monitor its internal temperature and ensure it reaches the desired doneness.
  • Let it Rest: After roasting, let the beef rest for 15-20 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful roast.

Conclusion:

Salt-crusted standing rib roast is a culinary masterpiece that combines simplicity with elegance. By following the detailed steps and tips provided in this recipe, you can create a mouthwatering and impressive centerpiece for any special occasion.
