A restaurant-level dish that’s shockingly easy at home. Roasting brings out the buttery richness of marrow, and the bright herb salad balances the flavor perfectly.


Roasted bone marrow with herbs on a tray, accompanied by toasted bread, a spoon, and a bowl of parsley salad. Warm, rustic setting.

Ingredients

  • 4–6 center-cut beef marrow bones

  • 1 tsp kosher salt

  • ½ tsp cracked black pepper

  • 1 tbsp olive oil

  • Herb Salad:

    • ½ cup chopped parsley

    • 1 small shallot, thinly sliced

    • Zest of 1 lemon

    • 1 tbsp lemon juice

    • 1–2 tbsp olive oil

    • Pinch of salt


Instructions

  1. Prep the bones: Soak bones in cold salted water for 30 minutes to remove excess blood (optional but makes them prettier). Pat dry.

  2. Season: Drizzle with olive oil, salt, and pepper.

  3. Roast: Place upright on a baking sheet and roast at 450°F for 15–20 minutes, until marrow is soft and bubbly but not melted out.

  4. Make the herb salad: Mix parsley, shallot, lemon zest, juice, olive oil, and salt.

  5. Serve: Scoop the marrow onto toasted sourdough or baguette and top with herb salad.


Serving Ideas

  • Add flaky salt on top for crunch.

  • Pair with pickled onions, arugula, or a splash of hot sauce.
