  4. Combine rock salt and eggwhite in a bowl to form a thick paste. Season fish with ½ tsp freshly ground black pepper and place a sprig of dill and 2 slices of lemon into the belly cavity of each fish. Divide fish between prepared trays and cover the bodies of each fish completely with the salt mixture.
  5. Bake for 20 minutes or until the tip of a sharp knife feels hot after being inserted into the thickest part of the fish. Let the fish stand for 5 minutes.
  6. Crack the salt crust and pull it away from the top of the fish. Remove skin.
