SMOKED TROUT SALAD, CUCUMBER AND ROASTED PEPPER SANDWICH



Smoked Trout Salad, Cucumber and Roasted Pepper Sandwich image

For this sandwich I use canned smoked trout - it's packed in oil and not dry, so it lends itself to a mixture like tuna salad. I flake it in my mini-processor, then mix it up with a little yogurt and mayonnaise.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     lunch, weekday, sandwiches, main course

Time 15m

Yield Two sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 9

One 3 9/10-ounce can smoked trout in canola oil
1 tablespoon plain yogurt
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
2 tablespoons finely diced celery
1 teaspoon minced fresh dill
2 small (3 1/2-inch) whole-wheat English muffins
About 1 1/2 ounces roasted red pepper
Sliced cucumber
A few drops lemon juice

Steps:

  • Drain the trout. Place the fillets in a bowl or in the bowl of a mini-food processor, and flake them. Mix in the yogurt and 1 teaspoon of the mayonnaise. It should have the consistency of tuna salad. Stir in the chopped celery and dill.
  • Lightly toast the English muffins. Spread a little mayonnaise on both halves. Spread half the trout mixture over the muffin bottoms. Top with cucumber slices, and douse with a little lemon juice. Layer half the roasted pepper over the cucumber slices. Place the other halves of the English muffins on top, press down, slice in half if desired and serve. Alternately, you may wrap the sandwiches in plastic, refrigerate and serve later.

CUCUMBER, SMOKED TROUT, AND PICKLED BEET SALAD



Cucumber, Smoked Trout, and Pickled Beet Salad image

Yield Serves 4 to 6 as a side dish

Number Of Ingredients 7

a 16-ounce jar sliced pickled beets
1/4 cup sour cream
freshly ground black pepper
1 smoked trout fillet, skin and bones discarded and fish broken into 1/2-inch pieces (about 1/2 cup)
1/4 cup fresh small dill sprigs
1 cucumber, quartered lengthwise and cut crosswise into 1/4-inch- thick slices (about 2 cups)
1 small onion, sliced thin (about 1/2 cup)

Steps:

  • In a sieve set over a bowl drain beets, reserving 1/4 cup juice, and halve beet slices. In a bowl whisk together reserved beet juice and sour cream and season with pepper and salt.
  • Stir in half of trout, half of dill, beets, cucumber, and onion and season with pepper and salt. Top salad with remaining trout and dill. Chill salad, covered, until cold, about 30 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the right type of trout. Fresh, firm trout with bright red flesh is best for smoking.
  • Prepare the trout properly. Clean the trout thoroughly and remove the gills and entrails. Score the skin of the trout to help the smoke penetrate.
  • Use a good quality smoker. A well-maintained smoker will produce evenly smoked trout.
  • Use the right wood chips. Alder, apple, and cherry wood chips are all good choices for smoking trout.
  • Smoke the trout at the right temperature. The ideal temperature for smoking trout is between 225°F and 250°F. This will make sure that you are not cooking, but curing the trout.
  • Smoke the trout for the right amount of time. The smoking time will vary depending on the size of the trout and the desired level of smokiness.
  • Let the trout cool before serving. Once the trout is smoked, let it cool for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will help the flavors to meld and make the trout easier to handle.

Conclusion:

Smoked trout is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways. Whether you are serving it as an appetizer, main course, or snack, smoked trout is sure to please everyone at your table. Smoked trout can be stored in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. It can also be frozen for up to two months. When you are ready to serve smoked trout, simply thaw it in the refrigerator overnight.
