ROCK SALT ENCRUSTED PRIME RIB
This is one of the absolute best ways to taste what a real prime rib tastes like, and it's NOT like plain old roast beef!! This method also makes an extremely cool presentation that fascinates people with its looks. A big plus is that this method makes it easier to remove the rock salt from your roast. The only drawback I've found is that you can't really use the drippings for au jus or gravy because it's way too salty, so make that separately. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
- Rinse the roast and pat dry with paper towels. Mix the onion soup mix and pepper together in a small bowl. Rub the pepper mixture generously over all sides of the roast. Place the roast on a clean, dry baking sheet, and rest 30 to 45 minutes.
- Meanwhile, mix the rock salt, flour, rosemary together in a bowl. Gradually pour in the water and mix by hand (wear gloves if desired) to make a thick, sticky batter or paste. Add more water if necessary. Spread the salt batter into the bottom of a roasting pan to make a layer 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick., reserving 1 to 2 cups. Place the roast, bones facing down, in the middle of the batter in the pan. Pull the batter up and around the roast to completely cover the meat. Pat on extra batter if necessary. Insert meat thermometer into the roast with its gauge positioned to be visible from the front of the oven (or use a regular meat thermometer).
- Cook in preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes. Remove, and use remaining salt batter to patch any holes or breaks in the coating.
- Meanwhile, prepare au jus according to package directions leaving out 1/4 cup water to boost flavor, and keep warm.
- Return roast to the oven, and cook until internal temperature reaches 130 degrees F (54 degrees C), or to desired doneness. Remove roast, and rest 20 to 30 minutes until internal temperature reaches 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). Chip off the crust and discard and then slice to serve. Serve garnished with horseradish and au jus.

Steps:
- Place the flour, salt and pepper in a large mixing bowl. In another bowl, whisk the egg whites and water and add to the dry ingredients along with 2 tablespoons of the herbs. Combine with a potato masher until the mixture begins to come together. Then knead with your hands for 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a large zip-top bag, seal, and let stand at room temperature for 4 hours, or up to 24 hours.
- Transfer dough to a floured surface and roll out to 3/16-inch thickness, approximately a 24 by 18-inch rectangle. Trim away extra dough, if necessary. Sprinkle the remaining herbs on the center section of the dough and gently press down.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- In order to achieve uniform cooking, fold over slender tail end of tenderloin and tie with kitchen twine. Set a large electric griddle at its highest setting; brush the tenderloin with the olive oil and sear on all sides until well browned, approximately 10 minutes. Rest the meat for at least 5 minutes or until it is cool to the touch so as not to melt the dough.
- Place the tenderloin in the center of the dough. Fold top part of dough over, flipping back about 1-inch of dough onto itself. Repeat with the bottom half of the dough. Press together the 2 flaps of dough and seal. Make sure the dough is not too tight around the tenderloin. At the ends of the tenderloin, press together dough to form a seal and cut away any excess. Transfer to a sheet pan, place in the oven and roast to an internal temperature of 125 degrees F, approximately 25 to 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to rest for 30 minutes or up to 1 hour. The tenderloin will continue to cook 10 to 15 degrees more. Cut salt crust at 1 end and extract meat by pulling out of dough tube. Slice and serve immediately.
STANDING RIB ROAST IN ROCK SALT
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".

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.
ROCK SALT ROAST
I'm told this is one of those recipes that looks awful but tastes great. Despite the coating, the beef will not be salty. Instead you will have a ery juicy roast, because the moisture is kept inside by the coating.

- Set the bottom of the roast on the salt, and press down to embed the salt into the mustard.
- Completely cover the remainder of the roast with rock salt, pressing it into the mustard.
- A lot of salt will fall off into the pan, but that doesn't hurt.
- Roast eighteen minutes per pound for rare beef, twenty-two minutes for medium, and twenty-five minutes for well done.
- After the first fifteen minutes of roasting time, check the roast to make sure that the coating is still intact.
- Repair any cracks or holes, using any left over salt and mustard.
- Double check the degree of doneness on the meat thermometer near the end of the roasting time.
- Let stand 15 minutes.
- The roast will be encased in a'shell'.
- Hit the shell sharply with the back of a knife, and it will crack open and start to fall off.
- Remove the shell, and place the roast on a cutting board.
- Slice, and serve with horseradish sauce.
- Note: The roast will continue to cook if the hard shell is left on after roast is removed from the oven.
- One six-and-one-half-pound roast removed after roasting for fifteen minutes per pound reached a rare degree of doneness in twenty-five minutes with the coating left on.
ROCK SALT SHRIMP
Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F.
- Select a 2-inch deep casserole dish that is large enough to hold the shrimp in a single layer. Add the rock salt to form a 1-inch bed in the dish. Slide the casserole dish into the oven and heat for 30 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic and olive oil to a mixing bowl to prepare the marinade.
- Make an incision down the back of each of the shrimp. Devein or remove the intestine from each piece and add the shrimp to the marinade. Toss together to coat, and let the ingredients rest for at least 10 minutes.
- Once heated, pull your casserole dish from the oven and arrange the shrimp on the bottom in 1 layer. Return the dish to the oven, and roast for 2 minutes. Turn each shrimp over, and set them aside to let the residual heat from the pan finish cooking their second sides. Serve warm.
ROCK SALT ROAST PRIME RIB
This is a very juicy prime rib which is easy to prepare. Surprisingly, it is not too salty and you can't taste the mustard. The horseradish sauce is great. Serve with Yorkshire pudding, or with a baked potato and a salad.
