How to do salt baked fish…
1. Take off the scale on the fish, cut fish belly and take out the entrails and clean the whole fish thoroughly. Use the paper towel to absorb the water on the fish.
2. Use the tray or oven safe baking dish that fish can fit perfectly in it.
3. Mix egg white and salt together.
4. Then take the salt mixture and apply on top of the fish thoroughly both sides. This one might be a little bit difficult because the side that have to face the tray seems like the salt doesn’t want to stick onto the fish (don’t worry, it will be just fine).
5. Bake the fish at 425 Fahrenheit (or about 220 Celcius) for 30 minutes and it will be just perfectly done.
6. Serve with “The sauce”.
