Trout cheeks

2 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
4 Lake trout cheeks
¼ cup Bearnaise sauce
1 teaspoon Butter
1 Slice bread, toasted.

Directions

When cleaning lake trout [or other large fish] scoop out the scallop shaped cheeks. Reserve until ready to prepare. Briefly pan fry or stir fry them in a small skillet or poach in acidified water . Have prepared a small quantity of Bearnaise sauce or flavored Beurre Compose. Make toast points and serve the cheeks on toast covered in the sauce. These are small but well worth the effort. [Walleye or pickerel cheeks are even smaller and even tastier!] Submitted By JIM WELLER On 07-16-95
