The original touch is given by the addition of Maldon salt at the end of cooking which, in addition to increasing the flavour, will arouse curiosity due to its particular consistency and milky white colour.

Method

If you use freshly harvested spices, start with these ingredients and wash them carefully, taking care to use only the leaves.

Then place the rib in a baking dish, pour 3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil , the lemon juice and a few pieces of zest and the spices .

Leave to rest in the refrigerator for a couple of hours after covering the baking dish with transparent paper.

Prepare the fire or the grill and when you have reached the temperature, remove the meat from the refrigerator and it will be perfectly marinated.

Leave on the heat, taking care to cook both sides for the time necessary to create a crunchy crust on the end. Remove from the heat, season with Maldon salt and bring to the table.
