Bacalhau à Brás (Portuguese Salt Cod with Eggs and Potatoes)

Bacalhau à Brás is the Lisbon dish of salt cod, matchstick potatoes and eggs. The cod is soaked and pulled into threads, the potatoes go in at the last moment, and the eggs work as a binder — creamy rather than scrambled.

Baked Carp in Sour Cream (Ukrainian)

Baked carp in sour cream is a Ukrainian classic: a whole fish coated in a garlicky sour-cream layer on a bed of onions. Diagonal slashes along the sides let the sour cream and heat reach inside and soften the fine bones. The foil is left open on top so the skin browns while the flesh stays moist.

Branzino al Sale (Italian Salt-Crusted Whole Sea Bass)

Branzino al sale is the classic Italian salt-crusted sea bass — a whole fish buried under coarse sea salt mixed with egg whites, baked at 200°C for 30 minutes, then cracked open at the table. The salt forms a hard dome that turns the oven into a sealed steam chamber: the fish cooks in its own moisture and the aromas of lemon, thyme, and rosemary. Despite the dramatic amount of salt, the flesh emerges perfectly seasoned, never salty — the scales act as a natural barrier. Restaurant-style Mediterranean seafood in its simplest form: high-protein, gluten-free, keto-friendly, and entirely hands-off once in the oven. Active work 10 minutes, bake 30 minutes. Serves 4 from two 700 g fish.
