SALT-CRUSTED SALMON WITH COLLARD GREEN SALSA VERDE
There are few things as impressive as a roasted side of fish. This is one of those show-off dishes that seems like it would be hard to make, but it's not. It's worth it to track down smoked salt for that extra layer of flavor. The aromatics that go in the cavity of the fish are what we call our Afro-Asian-American foundation: cilantro, bird's-eye chile, ginger, and lemongrass stalks. Thirty minutes in the oven while you whip up the bright, rich collard green salsa verde, and you're done. There's not a single dish in my cookbook that is as impressive and as easy.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
- Mix the salt and egg whites in a medium bowl with your hands and incorporate until the mixture feels like wet sand.
- Spread 1 1/2 cups of the salt mixture into a thin layer, in the shape of the salmon, on a baking sheet. (You may need to spread the mixture diagonally on the baking sheet.)
- Arrange the lemongrass, ginger, chile, and cilantro over the bed of salt. Place the fish, skin side up, on the bed of salt and aromatics and pack the remaining salt mixture over and around the fish, molding it to the shape of the fillet, sealing the fish and aromatics inside.
- Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes. The salt crust should have a warm golden color almost like sand and be rock hard. Remove from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes.
- Present the fish at the table within its salt crust, then, using a wooden spoon, strike the crust to crack it. Carefully lift pieces of the salt crust from the fish in large chunks. Peel back the skin, exposing the juicy, perfectly cooked fish. Divide the fish among plates. Discard the salt and aromatics.
- Serve with the salsa verde.
- In a food processor, pulse the collard greens, Brazil nuts, garlic, parsley and olive oil until thoroughly combined. You can use a flexible rubber spatula to scrape down the ingredients in the food processor to make sure everything mixes evenly.
- Transfer the mixture to a bowl, add the lemon zest and salt to taste (I use about 1 1/2 teaspoons). Stir in the vinegar just before serving.

Steps:
- Preheat your oven to 275 degrees F. Brush a half sheet pan with olive oil.
- Season the salmon with salt and pepper. Place the salmon skin-side down on the prepared half sheet pan and place in the oven. Cook for 15 minutes for medium rare (110 degrees F). If you prefer your salmon a little more cooked, continue to cook for another 5 to 10 minutes.
- In the meantime, make the salsa verde. In a mixing bowl, combine the remaining ingredients with 1/2 cup of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and let stand at room temperature for at least 15 minutes to let the flavors meld, if time allows.
