This is inspired by a traditional French combination of lentils and fresh salmon. I decided to make something a little simpler: a very basic lentil soup garnished with smoked trout, either canned or packaged. I use the Parmesan rind in the bouquet garni to add some umami flavor to the lentils, which would traditionally be paired with sausage or cured pork.

Steps:
- Combine the lentils, onion, garlic, bouquet garni, water, and salt to taste in a soup pot or a large saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer 45 minutes, or until the lentils are tender. Add pepper, taste and adjust salt. Remove the onion halves and bouquet garni and discard. Stir in the parsley.
- Divide the smoked trout among 4 bowls. Ladle in the soup and serve.
