Trota Salmonata alla Trentina con Burro e Salvia
Trentino-Alto Adige — Trentino, rivers and lakes
Trento's river trout preparation — farmed salmonata (salmon trout, a larger, pink-fleshed trout) pan-fried in clarified butter until crisp-skinned, then dressed at the last moment with fresh brown butter and sage leaves. The Trentino rivers produce excellent trout which the region treats simply — the skin must be perfectly crisp (meaning a dry fish and adequately hot pan), the flesh must remain just-cooked and moist, and the brown butter-sage sauce is made in the same pan while the fish rests.
