SeafoodMarch 2006 - Fish Recipes

For the 28,000 Catholics in Germany (33% of the population), the annual observance of the season of Lent, the 40 days between Fasching and Ostern  (Mardi Gras and Easter) means a meatless Friday. Whether you observe this tradition or not, you're sure to enjoy our selection of fish recipes.

Sauerkraut Stuffed Trout with Mustard Cream

Roxanne' comments: My husband enjoys fishing and I like to create recipes using his catch. Trout reminds me of dinners spent with friends in Germany and so I like to feature German products and try to recreate those flavorful moments.

Recipe Category: Entrée
Servings: 4

Ingredients:

1/2 cup drained Hengstenberg Mildessa Wine Sauerkraut
1 green onion, minced
1/4 cup Delba Pumpernickel Bread crumbs
2 Tbsp small diced green bell pepper
1/4 cup small dice fresh mushrooms
4 boned whole trout ( each about 1/2 pound)
2 Tbsp whipping cream
2 Tbsp lemon juice
2 Tbsp vegetable oil
1 Tbsp Hengstenberg Medium Hot Mustard
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
1/4 tsp lemon zest
1/4 tsp sugar garnish- chopped cucumber

Directions:

Mix the sauerkraut, onion, crumbs, bell pepper and mushrooms in a small bowl till well combined. Spoon an equal portion of the mixture onto 1 side of each fish. Fold the fish to enclose the filling.Lay the trout in an oiled 10 x 15 inch baking pan. Bake at 400 degrees 20 minutes or till the flesh is opaque. Whisk together the rest of the ingredients in a small bowl. Place the fish on dinner plates. Spoon the sauce over top and garnish with the cucumber.


Rhineland Salmon Ragout

Roxanne's comments: When my husband brings home salmon from one of his fishing trips my creative juices get flowing. This recipe was inspired by trips to Germany to visit friends;flavorful stews were a common entree at dinner time.

2 Tbsp flour
1/2 tsp salt

Add the broth. Bring to a simmer and cook 5 minutes. Stir in the Spätzle and the rest of the ingredients. Heat through till the spinach wilts, about 2 minutes. Top each serving with lemon zest.



Smoked Trout and Potato Salad

Roxanne's comments:My husband's hobby is fishing and we like to smoke most of the trout he catches. Having spent a year in Vienna and traveled to Germany several times to visit friends I'm inclined to create recipes using German products. I'm lucky to have many products available close by at the Junket in El Cererito, CA.

12 ounces smoked trout, skinned and broken into bite size pieces
1 1/2 pounds cooked red skinned potatoes, cut into 1 inch cubes

2 Tbsp Hengstenberg Medium Hot Mustard
2 Tbsp vegetable oil
1/2 tsp caraway seed

Place trout and rest of the salad ingredients in a large bowl. In a small bowl whisk together the ingredients for the dressing till well combined.Toss the dressing with the salad to evenly coat. Place on a platter; rim with the red cabbage and sprinkle on the poppy seeds.
