I gotta try trout one day...I believe it is nice. Does it taste link white fleshed salt water fish or maybe salmon?

Elvis

close to salmon but flesh is firmer.
we prefer trout to salmon..so does the cat!!!!!!

I'm the same way mate. Prefer trout over salmon, but Deb is opposite. I do get to eat trout sometimes.

Bushmaster

Trout rolled in cornmeal, salt, pepper and garlic. Fried in a pan with bacon.

Trout is a very light tasting fish and too much salt, pepper and garlic can over ride the trout.. Don't over cook.

You can eat the bacon too.

+1 on the dont over cook thing. 1 minute would be maximun in fry pan..sort of like a steak..cook one side to chrisp it then turn for short while..goes pale when done.
wee salmon in lb range are awesome quick fried in butter.

Vince

Methinks I'll have to source some trout. None up this way to catch...too hot.

Now I see what you meant about "wrigglers" in the txt (SMS)
you sent me last night - nice trout. Great eating. But I'll be more than happy with my deer …..

Vince

Found a seafood store today that had Victorian fresh Rainbow Trout for only $6 a piece. Grabbed a nice size one and plan on baking it tomorrow night with some lemon, thyme and garlic chives.

Elvis

you could go that way.....just dont cook it for too long..as soon as its pale its done...jusy like a steak you want it to change from raw but only just.

Vince

Thanks mate. I will wrap it in alfoil to make sure it doesn't overcook.

Bushmaster

Nothing better then a mountain stream native trout...

Elvis

2lb rainbow Bec's caught today was simply divine quick fried in buttered pan. fed four of us and both teens asked if any more!!!! Nathan had another one for lunch 1lb fish all to himself!!!

Vince

Haven't tried it yet mate...haven't had a chance to cook it up yet mate, been too busy with the grandson doing a history assignment on the Battle for Milne Bay during WW II.
