SMOKED TROUT SALAD, CUCUMBER AND ROASTED PEPPER SANDWICH
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.

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.

CUCUMBER, SMOKED TROUT, AND PICKLED BEET SALAD
Yield Serves 4 to 6 as a side dish
Number Of Ingredients 7
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.

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.
