Bone Marrow With Parsley Salad Recipes

ROASTED BONE MARROW WITH PARSLEY TOPPING

Steps:

• Fill a large 4- to 6-quart container with 6 cups cold water and whisk in 2 tablespoons of the kosher salt to dissolve. Add the marrow bones, cut-side down, and top with the ice. Refrigerate for 24 hours.
• When ready to cook, heat the oven to 425°F and place a rack in the center position.
• Drain the bones and pat dry with paper towels. You want the bones to cook as level as possible to minimize the loss of fat as it renders out, so place them cut-side down on a small sheet pan. Cover with a generous layer of aluminum foil, then use your hands to mold the foil around the bones and sides of the pans. Place a second pan on top of the foil, then flip the whole apparatus over. Remove the sheet pan that is now on top to reveal the bones, cut-side up, and nestled in foil. They should be pretty close to dead level.
• Roast the bones for 8 minutes, then rotate the pan and continue roasting until the bones have browned and the marrow is spreadable and soft, but not melted, 15 to 18 minutes total.
• While the bones roast, make the parsley topping. Whisk the oil, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt together in a medium bowl. Add the parsley leaves, celery leaves, celery stalk, garlic, lemon peel, shallot, and capers, and toss to combine.
• When the bones are finished, immediately dose about a third of the parsley mixture over the marrow and wait 5 minutes. Then, carefully transfer to a platter and serve with the toast, flaky salt, and remaining parsley mixture.

BONE MARROW WITH PARSLEY SALAD

Steps:

• A half hour before cooking, set the oven to 450 degrees F and position a rack in the middle position.
• Whisk the anchovy paste, mustard and lemon juice together in a large salad bowl or small mixing bowl. Slowly whisk in the olive oil, then stir in the shallot and season with kosher salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Place the marrow bones (the rounds on the wider flat ends) in a cast-iron pan or on a small pan lined with foil. If you're cooking "canoes," arrange them split-side up and crinkle the foil to keep them level so fat doesn't run out during cooking. If you're cooking a mixture of the two, which is kind of unlikely, you can just fit everything in one pan. Place in the hot oven and roast 15 minutes.
• While the bones roast, toss the herbs in the dressing and divide between serving plates.
• As soon as the bones are roasted, carefully transfer to plates, sprinkle over with the Maldon salt and serve.

ROAST BONE MARROW AND PARSLEY SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Put bones in an ovenproof pan and roast until marrow is loose and soft but not melted, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine parsley, shallots and capers in a medium bowl. In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice and oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Toss the parsley and dressing together just before serving.
• To serve, arrange the bones and salad on a platter family style and pass the toast and sea salt. To eat, loosen the marrow with small forks or knives, spread on toast and top with a pinch of sea salt and some of the parsley salad.

ROAST BONE MARROW WITH PARSLEY SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F. Place bones, wider cut side down, in an ovenproof skillet or roasting pan. Roast bones until marrow is soft and begins to separate from bone but before it begins to melt, 15-20 minutes, depending on thickness of bones.
• Meanwhile, toss parsley, shallots, oil, lemon juice, and capers in a medium bowl to coat. Season salad to taste with gray sea salt and pepper.
• Divide marrow bones and salad among plates. Serve with toast and gray sea salt. Using a long, thin spoon, scoop marrow onto toast, top with salad, and garnish with a pinch or two of salt.
