Smoked Trout On Toast With Tomato Salad Recipes

Steps:

• You will need to start your grill with hickory charcoal. Place trout in a casserole pan. In a small mixing bowl add the garlic, parsley, basil and squeeze half a lemon and lime in the herbs and garlic. Using a wire whisk slowly add 1/2 cup of olive oil to herbs and citrus. When well incorporated pour over trout and season with salt and pepper. Let sit for about 10 minutes.
• Slice half the tomatoes in circles and lay on platter with wild greens. The other half of the tomatoes dice and place in another small mixing bowl. Add a little chopped basil, extra-virgin olive oil, a drizzle of truffle oil, to taste, and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar. Season, to taste.
• Place trout on grill flesh side down and leave for about 2 minutes. Season skin side, flip and cook for 1 to 2 minutes longer.
• Pull trout off grill and place over greens and sliced tomatoes, then randomly place heirloom relish over fish. Take remainder of balsamic and truffle oil and drizzle over salad.

Steps:

• Toss the endive, shallots, and radishes in a large bowl. Toss with half of the dressing and season with salt and pepper. Divide the mixture among 4 plates and arrange the beets around the plate. Tear the trout fillets into bite-sized pieces and place on each salad. Top each with 1 tablespoon of the trout roe and serve.
• Whisk together lemon juice, vinegar, mayonnaise, mustards and salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Slowly whisk in the oil until emulsified and stir in the tarragon.

• Soak wood chips in water for at least 1 hour. Remove trout, rinse and dry thoroughly.
• Use a covered grill (charcoal, gas or electric) and preheat to about 200 degrees F. Cover
• heated coals with 1/3 of the hickory chips. Place fish, skin side down, on well-greased grill, about 4 inches from coals. Close grill hood and open vent to circulate smoke. Add additional hickory chips, as necessary. Smoke trout for approximately 20 minutes. Trout is done when the cut surface is golden brown and flakes easily with a fork.

• Meanwhile, whisk the creme fraeche, vinegar, olive oil and mustard in a large bowl to make a smooth dressing. Stir in the dill. Drain the onion, pat dry and add to the dressing. Add the potatoes and cucumber, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat.
• Divide the watercress among 4 plates and add some potato salad to each. Flake the trout with your fingers and scatter on top. Serve with pumpernickel bread and/or pickled beets, if desired.

Steps:

• Pile the salad leaves on 2 plates and divide the potatoes, radishes and beetroot between them. Flake over the smoked trout.
• Mix the horseradish and crème fraîche with enough milk to make a runny dressing. Season and drizzle over the salad.

Steps:
