Beef Roasted in Salt Crust |
Prep Time: 5 mins. |
3 cups coarse salt
6 lb standing rib roast -- 3kg trimmed
1. In a bowl stir together the salt and
3/4 cup water until the mixture forms a slightly stiff
paste resembling wet snow. Arrange the rib roast, fat side up, in a roasting
pan and coat it completely with the salt mixture, patting the mixture on about
1/4 inch 7mm thick.
2. Roast the beef in the middle of a
preheated oven 325°F-160°C. for 2 hours (about 22
minutes per pound), or until it registers 130°F-65°C. on
a meat thermometer for medium-rare meat.
3. Transfer the beef to a cutting board
and let it stand for 15 minutes. Remove the crust with a hammer and carve the
meat.
