A few cooks tonight

Leopoldstoch

A friend brought some freshly caught trout home from a trip to Canada (caught 6 days ago). Fired up the egg for that, and made a few other things along the way. A charcuterie and cheese board, a play on pasta aglio e olio, and a berries n cream dessert.

Char fish, when I was growing up in British Columbia is like a rainbow trout but lighter in color. I always, at least for me, compared rainbow to the breast of a chicken and Char as the dark meat so to speak when it came to flavor. 

Some Char that we used to catch were 4 feet or more in length. ‘Course this was 50 years ago.

Gotcha! I was confused for a sec there. My apologies. This was just a simple lake trout.

Looks like you nailed the cook!

Yep, lake trout. Looked a bit like a Char in your other photo. Bet it tasted great!

Awesome meal!  What kind of rub did you use on the trout?
