Favorite eating fish
« on: Mar 26, 2004, 06:06 PM »
2 part question
          a) fav. trout to eat (excluding brookies)
          b) fav. whitemeated fish to eat


a) brown trout because they are less greasy-tasting than other trout and have a sharper taste.

b) walleye because they taste the same as perch, yet they are bigger and you can cook them in different ways that you can't perch because of their limited size.

Why do you exclude brookies?  Because they are a char and not a trout?

I love brookies as my first favorite fish.  Salmon run a close second.  Rainbows are best smoked, browns are best released but baked if you are hard pressed to eat a trout!  Lakers are good baked whole or blackened on the grill.

Cusk (eelpout, burbot) are awesome fish to eat!  You have simply got to eat one if you haven't already.  Channel cats are delicious and brown bullhead are fantastic.

Yellow perch and walleye are good too.

Because I thought that everyone would pick them because, obviously, they taste the best to most people, so I wanted varied results.

Cornbread stuffed whole lake trout oven baked in viognier white wine with lemon slices, shallots, carrots, and celery...



It was supposed to be served with long-grain wild rice blend, but we forgot it on the stove!  :P

Can't take credit for the recipe.  If you want to try it, pick up a copy of LL Bean's Fish and Game cookbook.  Look under the lake trout section in the middle of the book.  It is the first recipe listed in this section.

(1) Planked Trout. You can use rainbows or browns, but my favorite is lake trout. Fillet the trout and tack it to a small piece of board just long enough to hold the fillet. Be sure you use a board from a non-coniferus tree, otherwise you will get a taste you won't enjoy. Rub the fillet with butter, lightly salt and pepper to taste. Stick the board in the ground right next to your campfire with the top angled slightly away from the fire. While the fish is cooking(10 to 15 min) baste it occasionally with orange juice, to which you have added a small amount of white wine and ground ginger. Test with a fork to see if the meat will flake easily. Then you throw the fish away and eat the board!!!!!!!!!  ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) Seriously, my favorite is a nice fat walleye that was still swimming a half hour before you put him in the frying pan. Dip the fillet in beaten egg, roll it in potato flakes and deep fry it in half butter and half bacon drippings. Eat like a king!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!                           
YOU CAN'T BS AN OLD BS'ER!

I'm over simplifying a bit here, but

a. any trout (including brookies), as long as they aren't stockies...why all the downs on browns?

b. most white fleshed fish, but eyes, crappies, perch, stripers, fluke, flounder, and blackfish best of all.

Cider, if your doing this cooking I'm going to have to force you to my state and cook for me at gunpoint!!! ;)

Lake trout do taste excellent when cooked correctly.
